An Accidental Tragedy by Graham Roderick
Based on contemporary documents and histories, this book paints a picture of Mary that sees her neither as a Catholic martyr, nor as a husband-murdering adulteress, but as a young girl adrift in the dangerous seas of sixteenth-century politics.'A superb book.. I couldn't put it down'
-- Jenny Wormald'a fair and compelling account'
