Mary, Queen of Scots
By Marjorie Bowen
Mary, Queen of Scots was the only daughter of James V, King of Scotland. She was a few days old when she acceded to the throne upon his death. A devout Catholic, Mary grew up in France but returned to Scotland, a country split between Catholics and Protestants, and in political turmoil. She soon sought to remarry after being widowed and here begins her tumultuous life that sealed her time as Queen of Scots. This account of Mary Stuart’s romantic and tempestuous life, is undoubtedly one of the most distinguished and readable historical biographies of the eminent monarch’s life.
