<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Elizabeth I, who reigned over Shakespeare's England and defeated the Spanish Armada, is familiar both from her portraits and as Gloriana, the Virgin Queen. Yet the reality of her character and her personal attitudes are harder to detect behind the public mask. Elizabeth I, a major biography by a leading Tudor expert to mark the 400th anniversary of her death in 1603, looks in detail behind the public life at the private woman. It treats at length her early years and examines her actions and policies as queen. David Loades's biography brings out her remarkable talents and unique achievements.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"...he is able to write a scholarly biography as if it were a popular history." --<i>Royal Book News</i> <p/>"...a worthy tribute to the 'Virgin Queen'...an outstanding biography." --<i>Jay Freeman, Booklist</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><P>David Loades is one of the leading historians of the Tudor monarchy.
