Heretic Queen: Queen Elizabeth I and the Wars of Religion

Susan Ronald. Ronald sets the Elizabethan age within the context of the Catholic-Protestant wars of religion that flared across Europe throughout the latter half of the 16th century. She deftly pulls together a vast amount of historical research into a compelling narrative that is essential reading for anyone interested in the strife-torn world in which this most fascinating queen used both wits and diplomacy to safeguard her kingdom, despite almost insurmountable odds.--Publisher's Weekly
