Henry II

Henry II

Journey back to the 12th century as we delve into the life of the formidable King Henry II of England, born in 1133. By the age of forty, Henrys reign spanned England, significant parts of Wales, half of Ireland and, due to his strategic marriage with Eleanor of Aquitaine, the western region of France. His complex relationships with former ally Thomas Becket, his wife Eleanor, and his own rebelling offspring add a fascinating layer to his story. However, despite these familial and political battles, Henry stands as one of Englands most influential kings. His reign marked the end of feudal chaos, the establishment of a strong central government, the laying of the groundwork for British common law and the jury system, and a revolution in the efficiency of the Exchequer. Join Pamela Nagami, M.D., as she unravels the extraordinary life of this medieval monarch.
