Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents extensive and irrefutable proof of infamous letters being forged by Queen Mary's enemies, and used against her during the 16th century. Using extensive primary source analysis, the author demonstrates that the letters were actually written in Scots, and not in French as was claimed, and were then poorly translated into Latin and French. The author explores the historical context of the forgeries, offering significant insight into Queen Mary's personal life, her reign, and the political events that shaped them. Through careful historical analysis, this book provides a fresh perspective on the enduring debate about the authenticity of the letters, highlighting the role of forgery in shaping historical narratives.
