Synopsis

From the biographer of Henry VIII, an original and striking appraisal of his younger daughter, the woman who would rule England during its golden age. She inherited from her father his intelligence, his physical energy and ebullient personality. Butwas she herself a great queen, or did she merely preside over a great era in English history? Ridley argues that Elizabeth's actions during her reign of England, and its military and cultural supremacy were determined by the fact that her parentswere Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn.
