Presents an exhaustively researched biography that reveals the personality, private life, and romantic intrigues of Elizabeth I

The Tudor dynasty of the 16th century gave us two of the most famous monarchs ever to rule England, Henry VIII and his daughter Queen Elizabeth 1. Elizabeth was Queen of England for 44 years in what some call the 'Golden Age'. She was Queen in a man's world and won respect for her intelligence, shrewdness and charm. She had her faults though, being prone to indecision and having a short temper, but she remains one of the greatest rulers that England has had. Queen Elizabeth 1 ruled in difficult and dangerous times, often being at war with Spain and France, but England became a powerful and prosperous country during her reign. She sent her sailors on daring missions to explore the world, saw the blossoming of English art, music and literature and she established the Church of England after the country had separated from the Roman Catholic Church during her father's reign. By the end of her long reign, Elizabeth had become perhaps the most loved, popular and successful monarch in the history of England. Vanessa Ellis gives you a comprehensive list of important facts about Queen Elizabeth 1, describing the important accomplishments and events in her life.

The official companion to the Emmy-winning Netflix drama chronicling the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, and starring Claire Foy and John Lithgow, The Crown by Peter Morgan, featuring additional historical background and beautifully reproduced archival photos and show stills Elizabeth Mountbatten never expected her father to die so suddenly, so young, leaving her with a throne to fill and a global institution to govern. Crowned at twenty-five, she was already a wife and mother as she began her journey towards becoming a queen. As Britain lifted itself out of the shadow of war, the new monarch faced her own challenges. Her mother doubted her marria≥ her uncle-in-exile derided her abilities; her husband resented the sacrifice of his career and family name; and her rebellious sister embarked on a love affair that threatened the centuries-old links between the Church and the Crown. This is the story of how Elizabeth II drew on every ounce of resolve to ensure that the Crown always came out on top. Written by the show's historical consultant, royal biographer Robert Lacey, and filled with beautifully reproduced archival photos and show stills, The Crown: The Official Companion: Volume 1 adds expert and in-depth detail to the events of the series, painting an intimate portrait of life inside Buckingham Palace and 10 Downing Street. Here is Elizabeth II as we've never seen her before.
