BEAUTIFUL!,
This review is from: The Nine Day Queen of England: Lady Jane Grey (Paperback)
Nine Day Queen of England is a wonderful book, convincing and truthful. Faith Cook tells the true story of Jane Grey as no other book I've read has! This book is truly amazing. I highly recommend it for anyone who is interested in Lady Jane Grey, or in English Monarchy!
This is certainly a truthful account of one of England's most tragic and brave monarchs.

This review is from: The Nine Day Queen of England: Lady Jane Grey (Paperback)
A very well-written book, full of excerpts from Lady Jane's own letters and journal entries. This 16-year-old girl had a remarkable grasp of the doctrinal debates of her day and knew her own beliefs relating to them. An interesting history story, an inspiring spiritual story.

This review is from: The Nine Day Queen of England: Lady Jane Grey (Paperback)
As far as the condition of the book, the book did have some wear to it, but it was not falling apart, and even more so, it was in pretty good shape.
This is a very educational book about the history and politics of the 15th century times. Although this book was about Lady Jane Grey, almost 2/3 of the book is really about the government of the time; King Henry the VIII and his son Edward, Jane's family, and other things, as the author said, were necessary to set the setting for Lady Jane. It was very heavily packed with historical information not about Lady Jane, but the story of Lady Jane was one that was very inspiring and convicting. Being a young woman, she was mature beyond her years. Overall, this book gives great justice to the setting that surrounded Lady Jane and to the exemplary figure that Lady Jane was.
