‘This colourful and immensely detailed biography charts Elizabeth’s turbulent and unstable upbringing, from the Wyatt Rebellion – a plot to topple her half-sister, Mary, from her throne – to the predatory attentions of Sir Thomas Seymour and the heartbreaking rift with her beloved stepmother Katherine Parr. When Elizabeth became queen, she had already endured more tumult than many monarchs experienced in a lifetime, and this truly comprehensive account explores the dangers and tragedies that plagued her early life.‘
The paperback of ‘Young Elizabeth: Princess. Prisoner. Queen’ by Nicola Tallis will be published in the UK by Michael O’Mara Books on 27th February.
