Trade Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. Second Printing. 454 Pages Indexed. March 2004 Printing of the January 2004 Edition. Minor cover edge and corneer wear. Tight bright book with nor marks of stamps. Faultless interiror text. Two center sections of color photographs. Four hundred years ago, on 24 March 1603, Elizabeth I died. She was in her 70th. Having been propped for days on cushions on the floor in her chamber, she had been persuaded to take to her bed at last. To her Archbishop of Canterbury she said the crown which I have borne so long has given enough of vanity in my time. These words struck to the heart of the tragedy that had befallen Elizabeth and Mary Queen of Scots. This same crown had been the focus of Mary's ambition too; her claim to Elizabeth's throne was the obsession of her adult life from which so many disasters flowed. Elizabeth realised that her crown and all the powerful interests that surrounded it were what drew her and Mary together, and yet fatally divided them. Despite possessing the throne of England, with all the pride of a daughter of King Henry, she was haunted by a deep-rooted insecurity as to her own legitimacy. When pressed by Parliament to sign Mary's death warrant, Elizabeth railed in anguish against the crown that had made this unnatural decision hers alone. Instead she wished that Mary and she were but as two milkmaids with pails upon our arms. It was their royal rather than their human status that had brought these queens to where one had to die. Sixteen years before Elizabeth's death in old age, Mary was beheaded at the age of forty-four. From that one act of a queen killing a fellow queen, a mythology of justification, romance, accusation and blame was spun that retained its force to today. Of all the monarchs it is Elizabeth I and Mary Queen of Scots who most stir the imagination. They divided powerful opinion in their lifetimes and were the focus of passionate debate in the centuries that followed their deaths. Contents in 12 Chapters: The Fateful Step, The Disapointment of Kings, The Education of Princes, Apprenticeship for a Queen, Wilfulness and God's Will, Complicity and Competition, Raison de Coeur Raison de 'Etat, Seeking a Future King, Outrageous Fortune, Double Jeopardy, Singular Foes, and The Consequence of the Offence.

"A splendid piece of popular history written with the ready pen of a highly skilled writer, endowed with a remarkable insight into the complex motives which drove these two powerful women." -- Roy Strong, Daily Mail. "Wonderfully readable and perceptive . Dunn's well-established gifts as a biographer are used here with remarkable sensitivity as she examines the upbringing of her twin subjects and shows how they were influenced by strikingly different experiences and mentors." -- Miranda Seymour, The Sunday Times. "Artfully structured . Deeply satisfying. Jane Dunn handles her subject with tremendous flair. She is a supremely accomplished stylist who writes with poise and assurance." -- Anne Somerset, Literary Review. "The first dual biography of two of the world's most remarkable women -- Elizabeth I of England and Mary Queen of Scots -- by one of Britain's "best biographers" (The Sunday Times). In a rich and riveting narrative, Jane Dunn reveals the extraordinary rivalry between the regal cousins. It is the story of two queens ruling on one island, each with a claim to the throne of England, each embodying dramatically opposing qualities of character, ideals of womanliness (and views of sexuality) and divinely ordained kingship. As regnant queens in an overwhelmingly masculine world, they were deplored for their femaleness, compared unfaborably with each other and courted by the same men. By placing their dynamic and ever-changing relationship at the center of the book, Dunn illuminates their differences. Elizabeth, inheriting a weak, divided country coveted by all the Catholic monarchs of Europe, is revolutionary in her insistence on ruling alone and inspired in her use of celibacy as a political tool -- yet also possessed of a deeply feeling nature. Mary is not the romantic victim of history but a courageous adventurer with a reckless heart and a magnetic influence over men and women alike. Vengeful against her enemies and the more ruthless of the two queens, she is untroubled by plotting Elizabeth's murder. Elizabeth, whoever, is driven to anguish at finally having to sanction Mary's death for treason. Working almost exclusively from contemporary letters and writings, Dunn explores their symbiotic, though never face-to-face, relationship and the power struggle that raged between them. A story of sex, power and politics, of a rivalry unparalleled in the pages of English history, of two charismatic women -- told in a masterful double biography." -- from the inner front jacket flap.
