Summary
In this episode, we spin off from our recent discussion on who was truly safe under Henry VII - and turn the spotlight on Thomas More. What if he had made a different choice? Instead of staying, what if he had fled into exile? Where would he have gone - and would he have taken his family with him? And perhaps most importantly… how would history remember him if he hadn’t died on the scaffold? We explore the possibilities, the risks, and the life Thomas More might have lived. -- Show your support over on Patreon and get early access, exclusive content, and more! https://patreon.com/tudorsdynasty -- Hosts: Rebecca Larson Amy McElroy
