Book excerpt: "The almost perfect historical novel." -The New York Times The Man on a Donkey is an enthralling, panoramic historical novel that brings to life one of the most tumultuous times in British history-the reign of King Henry VIII. In Part 1, readers are introduced to the world of the Tudors through the lives of five individuals. In Part 2-as King Henry VIII continues his arrogant rule, Thomas Cromwell closes the monasteries, and rebellion breaks out in the North of England-readers discover the destiny of these five people and, through their stories, learn that God's love is felt only by those whose hearts are open to mystery and grace.
