Note LT: with an interesting chapter on the dissolution of the monasteries: "The dissolution destroyed the last possible refuge of papalism, enriched the crown, and anchored the new order firmly in the self-interest of the landowning classes who purchased the estates. It did all this with the thoroughness and amazing ease (...) which characterised all Cromwell's achievements." (p. 149)
