Elizabeth: the Struggle for the Throne by David Starkey


Non-Fiction - 5 stars - Pompous, high-brow, pretentious - all words to describe David Starkey's writing style. That being said, this is a great book! It is the story of Elizabeth's years from birth to coronation, a time most biographies gloss over. It describes her relationship with Mary and Edward, and all of the intrigue surrounding her at all times. Very easy read for historical biography, and I savored every page. Thanks, Michelle!
