In-person talk: Uncover the secrets of the Boleyn family with Tracy Borman, Chief Historian at the Historic Royal Palaces.
In her new novel The House of Boleyn, best-selling author, historian and broadcaster Tracy Borman immerses us in the world of the Boleyn’s beautiful Kent home, Hever Castle. It was here that they plotted and schemed, grieved and rejoiced – and where Henry VIII relentlessly pursued Anne Boleyn.
In this richly illustrated in-person talk, Tracy uncovers the real history that inspired her novel and takes the audience behind closed doors to explore the Boleyn’s as they’ve never been seen before.
BIOGRAPHY:
TRACY BORMAN OBE is Chief Historian at the Historic Royal Palaces. A regular broadcaster and public speaker, Tracy regularly appears on the Channel 5 Inside the Tower of London series and stars in several Channel 5 documentaries including Princes in the Tower, and Elizabeth I and Anne Boleyn: The Prisoner Queens. Her 2025 non-fiction book, The Stolen Crown, was an instant Sunday Times bestseller and saw her undertake a national tour across the country, appearing at bookshops, historic venues and literary festivals. As a historian and novelist, Tracy writes fiction and non-fiction. Her upcoming novel, The House of Boleyn combines real history with richly imagined drama.
Tracy is the author of a number of highly acclaimed books including Crown & Sceptre, Henry VIII and the Men Who Made Him, The Private Lives of the Tudors, Thomas Cromwell: The Untold Story of Henry VIII’s Most Faithful Servant, Matilda: Wife of the Conqueror, First Queen of England, Elizabeth’s Women: The Hidden Story of the Virgin Queen, Witches: A Tale of Sorcery, Scandal and Seduction, Anne Boleyn & Elizabeth I and The Stolen Crown.
