Title Description

In his ever-popular romance of Tudor England, Scott brilliantly recreates all the passion, brutality, verve and vitality of the Elizabethan world. Only two of his novels end tragically – Kenilworth ends with the death of Amy Robsart, who unwisely loved Queen Elizabeth’s favourite, the Earl of Leicester.
