Westminster Abbey:
The Last Days of the Monastery Henry VII added to the Abbey its crowning architectural glory, but in his son's reign tre Benedictine monks were ejected. Some were briefly restored by Queen Mary. Queen Elizabeth removed them, but preserved the Abbey as a place of religion and learning. These events are seen through the eyes of a monk who lived through that tragic half-century.
