Product Description
Review
...surely the most important [biography] since Neale's appeared nearly sixty years ago...gives us a persuasive picture of the queen, sympathetic but wholly without hagiography? <br /><br />Shrewd Judgements are numerous, and the narrative incorporates subtle analyses of events, personalities, and the relationships between them. (Journal of Modern History ) --History
<br /><br />Now at last it [Sir John Neale's 1934 biography of Elizabeth I] faces an academic challenge. --The Times Higher Education Supplement
<br /><br />The strength of Professor MacCaffrey's treatment lies in the clarity with which he presents the portrait of Elizabeth as policy maker, and her strengths and weaknesses in that capacity. As a public figure his skills do justice to her role. --Archive for Reformation History --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.
