Book Synopsis Trial of Mary, Queen of Scots by : Archibald Francis Steuart
Download or read book Trial of Mary, Queen of Scots written by Archibald Francis Steuart and published by Canada Law Book. This book was released on 1923 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The trial of Mary Queen of Scots took place in the Star Chamber, and was the first formal trial of a crowned and accredited Sovereign in historic times. The unfortunate Queen was not tried, as many people think, for any deeds or misdeeds done during her reign in Scotland, but on account of her alleged complicity in the Babington plot which designed to free her and kill Queen Elizabeth of England. This volume gives the State Trial, the legal processes which led up to it, the tortuous policy of the English lawyers, and a rare account of the Queen's last miseries borne with such dignity and bravery.
Book Synopsis The First Trial of Mary, Queen of Scots by : Gordon Donaldson
Download or read book The First Trial of Mary, Queen of Scots written by Gordon Donaldson and published by New York : Stein and Day. This book was released on 1969 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Trial of 1568-9 is perhaps the most neglected period of Mary's life. Before it, she had been a girl in France, the romantic queen in Scotland: after it, she became the prematurely ageing captive, the royal martyr. During the crucial period of change, we see the Mary of flesh and blood, less attractive but no less fascinating: the figutive from justice, accused of adultery and murder; her life in peril from her own subjects, yet bent on vengeance; ready to abandon Bothwell for whom she had given up so much, ready also to accept Anglicanism as a condition of her restoration. Perhaps because she had so much to gain as well as so much to lose, Mary has fascinated readers as few other women in history have.

Download or read book Elizabeth and Mary written by Jane Dunn and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Superb.... A perceptive, suspenseful account." --The New York Times Book Review "Dunn demythologizes Elizabeth and Mary. In humanizing their dynamic and shifting relationship, Dunn describes it as fueled by both rivalry and their natural solidarity as women in an overwhelmingly masculine world." --Boston Herald The political and religious conflicts between Queen Elizabeth I and the doomed Mary, Queen of Scots, have for centuries captured our imagination and inspired memorable dramas played out on stage, screen, and in opera. But few books have brought to life more vividly the exquisite texture of two women’s rivalry, spurred on by the ambitions and machinations of the forceful men who surrounded them. The drama has terrific resonance even now as women continue to struggle in their bid for executive power. Against the backdrop of sixteenth-century England, Scotland, and France, Dunn paints portraits of a pair of protagonists whose formidable strengths were placed in relentless opposition. Protestant Elizabeth, the bastard daughter of Anne Boleyn, whose legitimacy had to be vouchsafed by legal means, glowed with executive ability and a visionary energy as bright as her red hair. Mary, the Catholic successor whom England’s rivals wished to see on the throne, was charming, feminine, and deeply persuasive. That two such women, queens in their own right, should have been contemporaries and neighbours sets in motion a joint biography of rare spark and page-turning power.

Book Synopsis Mary, Queen of Scots, and the Murder of Lord Darnley by : Alison Weir

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Alison Weir's Mary Boleyn. Handsome, accomplished, and charming, Henry Stuart, Lord Darnley, staked his claim to the English throne by marrying Mary Stuart, who herself claimed to be the Queen of England. It was not long before Mary discovered that her new husband was interested only in securing sovereign power for himself. Then, on February 10, 1567, an explosion at his lodgings left Darnley dead; the intrigue thickened after it was discovered that he had apparently been suffocated before the blast. After an exhaustive reevaluation of the source material, Alison Weir has come up with a solution to this enduring mystery. Employing her gift for vivid characterization and gripping storytelling, Weir has written one of her most engaging excursions yet into Britain’s bloodstained, power-obsessed past.
