Book Description

The Elizabethan golden age was peopled by a court of flamboyant and devoted men – each one unique, ambitious and talented. At its centre was a woman, Elizabeth, the Tudor princess who succeeded to the throne of England in 1558 and who vowed to her Parliament to remain unwed and a Virgin Queen for the rest of her life. How did such a diverse group of red-blooded men view their ‘Gloriana?’ What were their aims and intentions? What were their dreams? And just how did Elizabeth manage to control and manipulate them? A unique blend of fact and fiction brings the Elizabethan court and its inhabitants to life in an evocative series of biographical sketches that will inform and entertain in equal measure.

    This is such an interesting structure. Eschewing the traditional biographical form could really shed light on the construction of female leaders, as well as those who follow them. This is definitely one to watch!

    I’ve just found this gem of a website about the Tudors and look forward to learning more about my favourite royal dynasty.

  32. Love reading anything Tudor, but have moved from Henry and Ann to Elizabeth. Was just watching “Elizabeth, Virgin Queen” from the BBC on You Tube this morning. Strong woman who obviously got her backbone from both her mother and her father. Can’t help but to think she must have been lonely inside without knowing true love. Don’t think Robert Dudley qualifies as a true love, more an obsession of her not being able to have him wholly.

  33. Laura Rhoades-Stovall says:

    I would love to win this because I did my masters thesis on Elizabeth!!!

  34. Ainara Groenewoud says:

    A book about a spectacular woman. She was admired by many.
