  • "With her perilous path of accession to the throne behind her, Elizabeth the First, the cool-headed young British monarch, must restrain her passion for the dashing courtier Robert Dudley or risk her beloved country's welfare."@en
  • "In this "memoir" by Elizabeth I, legendary historical novelist Jean Plaidy reveals the Virgin Queen as she truly was: the bewildered, motherless child of an all-powerful father; a captive in the Tower of London; a shrewd politician; a lover of the arts; and eventually, an icon of an era. It is the story of her improbable rise to power and the great triumphs of her reign--the end of religious bloodshed, the settling of the New World, the defeat of the Spanish Armada. Brilliantly clever, a scholar with a ready wit, she was also vain, bold, and unpredictable, a queen who commanded--and won--absolute loyalty from those around her. But in these pages, in her own voice, Elizabeth also recounts the emotional turmoil of her life: the loneliness of power; the heartbreak of her lifelong love affair with Robert Dudley, whom she could never marry; and the terrible guilt of ordering the execution of her cousin, Mary, Queen of Scots. In this unforgettable novel, Elizabeth emerges as one of the most fascinating and controversial women in history, and as England's greatest monarch. From the Trade Paperback edition."
  • "Soberana de este reino es la historia de Isabel I, la Reina Virgen, de su increíble ascenso al trono y de los grandes triunfos de su reinado: el fin de los atroces enfrentamientos religiosos, la conquista del Nuevo Mundo, y las derrotas infligidas a la poderosa armada española."@es
  • "Jean Plaidy writes a personal and detailed history of Elizabeth I written as a memoir from her own point of view. This historical novel delves deep into the story of the Queen, the emotional struggles she faced because of her title and the expectations that went along with it, including her heartbreaking love life."
  • "Britain's greatest queen, Elizabeth I, was also the bewildered, motherless child of an all-powerful father; a captive in the Tower of London; a shrewd politician; a brilliant scholar; a lover of the arts; and, eventually, an icon. In this unforgettable fictional memoir, Elizabeth recounts the emotional turmoil of her life: the loneliness of power; the heartbreak of her lifelong love affair with Robert Dudley; and the terrible guilt of ordering the execution of her cousin, Mary, Queen of Scots."@en
