5.0 out of 5 stars
dark side of English history,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bloody Mary: The Life of Mary Tudor (Paperback)
What, out of print? What a shame. Carolly Erickson has outdone herself with this hefty volume, devoted to chronicling the dark side of English history. She fills us in on heartbreaking details of the Tudor family saga, keeps a lively sense of international conflicts; and very nearly creates sympathy for the self-described "unhappiest lady in Christendom" -- whose death was celebrated as a national holiday.
5.0 out of 5 stars
An Incredible and Exhaustive Study of Mary Tudor's Life!,
By Aimee Thor "Aimee Thor" (Xenia, Ohio) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bloody Mary (Paperback)
One of the best biographies on Mary Tudor, "Bloody Mary" ever written! The authoress outdoes herself and makes a fantastic dive into the good and the horrible events that outlined Bloody Mary's reign. This books is long and a bit overly detailed in places, but it is necessary to give the voluminous background on the life of this queen who was hated bitterly by many of her subjects. You won't be disappointed in this biography, especially if you want facts, details, and emotional input. A FANTASTIC ALL-AROUND BIOGRAPHY!!
