British monarch Elizabeth I's long reign is remembered as a period of stability for England. Yet, her relationship with her cousin, Mary, Queen of Scots, was contentious at best, leading to a fatal ending for one of the monarchs. This intrigue-filled volume transports readers into the throne rooms of Europe during the 16th century, where they'll learn of shifting lines of succession, clashes between religions, and assassination plots. Actual quotes from the rulers themselves as well as stunning portraits and paintings mark the pages of this well-designed book, and a timeline summarizes the essential events of this historical rivalry.
