Description

Elizabeth I by Margaret George The legendary Elizabeth Tudor, one of history's most enigmatic queens, reaches the height of her power in 1588. Her life is marked by intrigue and rivalry, particularly with her flame-haired cousin Lettice Knollys, who harbours a deep-seated desire to regain power and position for her family. As Elizabeth navigates the complexities of ruling her country and throne, she must also contend with the ambitions of those close to her, including Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, and his son, the Earl of Essex. This is a story of two women, each driven by fierce intellect and desire: one determined to protect her nation, the other seeking to reclaim her family's fortunes. Their rivalry soon involves everyone at court, from esteemed courtiers to renowned poets and playwrights. For Elizabeth, ruling with her heart as well as her head means making difficult choices that will shape the course of her life and the fate of her people.
