One of the most intelligent of all the Tudors, Elizabeth grew up in the shadow of her brother, Edward, and her sister, Mary. Growing up in loneliness her first twenty-five years, she ascended to the throne of England in 1558 and reigned 45 years. This book is an evocation of the Elizabethan era as well as presenting the "real" Elizabeth.
