Crown of thistles : the fatal inheritance of Mary Queen of Scots
Porter, Linda, 1947-2013
Books, Manuscripts
The struggle between the fecund Stewarts and the barren Tudors is generally seen only in terms of the relationship between Elizabeth I and Mary Queen of Scots. But little has been said about the background to their intense rivalry. Here, Linda Porter examines the ancient and intractable power struggle between England and Scotland.
