Description
The legend of Elizabeth I, the untouchable, charismatic Virgin Queen, is a powerful and enduring one. Most biographies focus on the years of her reign, during which she proved herself as adept a ruler as England had ever seen. But while the history of her rule is fascinating, the story of how her remarkable character was forged seems vital to a full understanding of the woman who led England into a new age of prosperity, power, and artistic achievement.
David Starkey’s Elizabeth: The Struggle for the Throne explores the terra incognita of Elizabeth’s early years, and the result is nothing short of captivating.
