Rosemary Goring
One of the most famous queens in history, Mary Stuart lived in her homeland for just twelve years: as a dauntless child who laughed at her friends' seasickness as they sailed to safety in France and later, on her return as an eighteen-year-old widow to take control of a nation riven with factions, dissent, and religious strife. Brief though her in time Scotland was, her experience profoundly influenced who she was and what happened to her.
In this book, Rosemary Goring tells the story of Mary's Scottish years through the often dramatic and atmospheric locations and settings where the events that shaped her life took place and also examines the part Scotland, and its tumultuous court and culture, played in her downfall. Whether or not Mary Stuart emerges blameless or guilty, in this evocative retelling she can be seen for who she really was.
©2022 Rosemary Goring (P)2023 TantorRosemary Goring’s description of the various castles, palaces & places that the Queen travelled through and spent time in, many of which most modern Scots with an interest in Scottish history are familiar with, helps the reader visualise & bring to life the story of her life in 16th century Scotland. The little interesting anecdotes of many of these places, enlivens the story. An enjoyable book, well narrated by Mhairi Morrison.
Enjoyable.
