Description

“I read Rosemary Sutcliff’s books aloud to my own children
who were as captivated as I was. She is one of our greatest writers and gave me
a lifelong love of history.” Chris Riddell

Tamsyn arrives from a sleepy Devon town for a new life in
Tudor London. Immediately enchanted by her uncle’s home on the Thames and the
ships and river traffic passing by, she dreams of going to sea for a life of
voyage and discovery. But little does show know, that adventure and excitement
can be found closer to home in Tudor London.

Rosemary Sutcliff, author of the children’s classic, The
Eagle of the Ninth, brilliantly captures in naturalistic detail sixteenth-century
London. Published in a beautiful gift hardback, with an introduction by Lara
Maiklem, author of the bestselling, Mudlarking, The Armourer’s House
will transport children on a captivating
Tudor adventure.
