Quotes by Eric Ives (?)

“Captivating to men, Anne was also sharp, assertive, subtle, calculating, vindictive, a power dresser and a power player, perhaps a figure to be more admired than liked.”
― Eric Ives, The Life and Death of Anne Boleyn

“Historians are not by and large inclined to supernatural explanations, but they are addicted to a near equivalent - 'inevitability'.”

“The king greeted the document (the Collectanea) not so much as a drowning man greets a straw but as he might a rescue party from outer space.”
