Mary Queen of Scots
Nancy Lotz, Carlene Phillips
Library Binding (Morgan Reynolds Pub, May 15, 2007)Although Mary Stuart became Queen of Scotland only a few days after she was born, she lived in her native land for only six years. Six years, however, was long enough for her often tragic life to become the stuff of legends. Mary was both a victim of her times, particularly the religious conflict that was raging across Europe as well as her own bad decisions, and her life story serves as a dramatic contrast to the much more successful reign of her distant cousin Elizabeth Tudor to the south—the woman who eventually ordered her beheading. Mary Stuart was an intriguing woman who lived in a fascinating time and this new biography brings both the biography and the era alive for a new generation of readers.
