Lucy begins by demolishing one of the founding myths about the English Reformation: far from being a ready ally of Martin Luther's Protestant revolution, Henry remained a Catholic to his death. So the fundamental shifts in our cultural, political and economic fortunes weren't driven by Henry VIII's Protestant zeal. In reality, it was Henry's wife Anne Boleyn and his fixer Thomas Cromwell who championed the Protestant cause.
