"Ten Tudor Statesmen" by Arthur D. Innes is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book presents a series of biographical studies on prominent figures from the Tudor period of English history, highlighting their influence on politics and the shaping of future generations. The work aims to provide readers with a nuanced understanding of these statesmen’s characters and their roles in political dynamics rather than offering a comprehensive history of the Tudor era. The opening of the text sets the stage by emphasizing the author's intent to delve into the character studies of key political figures, notably illustrating the backgrounds and experiences that shaped them. Throughout this introduction, Innes notes the non-noble origins of most of the ministers examined in the book, underscoring a significant shift in the political landscape that accompanied the Tudor dynasty's rise. Specifically, the text begins with a focus on Henry VII, tracing his early life, accession to the throne, and political acumen, laying the groundwork for a deeper exploration of Tudor statesmanship that will follow in the subsequent chapters.
