Although life in Tudor was ordered in a strict hierarchy, service was common for all classes, and servants were not necessarily the lowest stratum in society. This book looks at the servant life in the Tudor period. It examines relations between servants and their masters, peering into the bedrooms, kitchens and parlours of the ordinary folk.

Alison Sim is a specialist in medieval and Tudor history who has worked as a guide and education officer at a variety of locations, including the Tower of London, Kew Palace, Hampton Court and the Imperial War Museum.
