Elizabeth (Coronet Books)

Describes the emotions of Queen Elizabeth I. For although her great passion was for power, she was capable of more human feelings such as her love for the worthless Earl of Leicester. Also brought to life are the monarch's vanities, her favourites and her political intrigues - including her struggle with her cousin Mary, Queen of Scots, for the throne of England. The author, who twice won a US Literary Guild Award, also wrote "Anne Boleyn", "Victoria", "Valentina", "Far Fly the Eagles", "Curse Not the King" and "Imperial Highness".
