This absorbing and illuminating biography of Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, is a natural sequel to Elizabeth Jenkins' celebrated biography of that enigmatic and fascinating Queen, Elizabeth the Great.
Generally unpopular among his fellow courtiers, detested by the people as a whole and lampooned by the writers of the day, Dudley's influence on his royal mistress was constant and incalculable from the beginning of her reign until his death in 1588.
The story of Elizabeth and Leicester has a fascination that never fades and Elizabeth Jenkins provides a storehouse of rich detail within a sparkling and elegant narrative.
