Review
"A book that will leave few readers unmoved."
-- "San Francisco Chronicle"

-- "Time"
"One of the most fascinating figures in history."
-- "The Columbus Dispatch"
"Compassionate, illuminating, rich in human interest."
-- "The New York Times"
"With grace, sensitivity and a sharp eye for detail, Lady Antonia Fraser has succeeded not only in recapturing the real Mary from the symbol but also in illuminating the chaotic age in which she lived."
