Reviews

‘All in all, this is a fine volume, full of valuable insights and one which does credit to both the editors and the series.’
Nicholas Tyacke, University College London, The Parliamentary History Yearbook Trust 2016

‘It contains much which is original and much for further research, and the Catholic perspective contains much that gives grounds for thought in different directions to the usual. Excellent bibliographical references throughout provide material for this thought. This is a worthwhile addition to the library of anyone interested in the question of the Elizabethan succession.’
Jasmin L. Ditcham, Wellington, Shropshire, The Sixteenth Century Journal, The Journal of Early Modern Studies. Volume XLVlll, No. 1, Spring 2017
