Elizabeth I Summary

Elizabeth I: Fortune's Bastard? by Richard Rex

An intimate biography of the public and private life of Elizabeth I. Too many biographies of Elizabeth I perpetuate the flattery she enjoyed from her courtiers. Leading Tudor historian, Richard Rex, reflects more critically on her life and reign and highlights the contrary personality of a Queen who could both baffle and bedazzle her subjects.

Elizabeth I Reviews

'Rex is a wry commentator on the game of monarchy' -- The Guardian
'Told with enviable narrative skill' -- THES
