5 out of 5 stars the lessons of history   March 31, 2008
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

Having a lifelong fascination with Mary, Queen of Scots, I have read a great many biographical,fictional and poetic interpretations of her life. I came to this one feeling rather sceptical that anything really new could be added.
I was wrong - Mr Graham's direct writing style and straightforward but cogent analysis makes for great story-telling, but with one eye firmly on how history's lessons may be usefully learned. Living just down the road from where Queen Mary sailed from Scotland to entrust her future to her cousin, Elizabeth, I feel thoroughly reacquainted with both through this lovely book. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to be metaphorically transported back to the 16th century!
