This review is from: Mary Queen of Scots (Routledge Historical Biographies) (Paperback)
I am not a professional researcher,nor am I a historian, although I have a keen interest and vast library on tudor/jacobean history and culture. I am researching for a trilogy of historical novels, both centered in the court of the Queen of Scots. I bought this book with an eye to confirming the historical accuracy of my work, but I expected to learn at least one fact, or acquire at least one viewpoint I had not heard. While this is a good overview for a novice on the topic, I found nothing I had not already learned or surmised from the works of Guy, Fraser, Wormald,or the now available works of Melville, Skelton and others. For entertainment, Guy's My Heart is My Own is a more enjoyable read.
