The Tudors in Love: Passion and Politics in the Age of England's Most Famous Dynasty is a non-fiction book by Sarah Gristwood.

[1] Gristwood argues that much of the justification for Tudor rule in Europe was based on their relationships and "courtly love," tracing the idea back more than 300 years.

[2] Case studies from the book include Henry VIII and his six wives, the execution of Anne Boleyn, and Elizabeth I's courtiers.

"[3] Kirkus Reviews praised the book's depth but criticized the level of literary scholarship.

[4] Tina Brown, writing in The New York Times, described the book as "dense but compelling" and praised Gristwood for humanizing the various Tudor royals.
