Description

Now in paperback from “the queen of regal fiction” (USA TODAY) Philippa Gregory— a distinctive book concerning the interesting, intimate, and frustrating jane Queen of scots. For a long time Philippa Gregory’s visitors have already been asking her to create a book about Mary Queen of Scots—a demand she today satisfies having a story as any she's ever created as engrossing. A heroine everybody acknowledges but several undoubtedly understand, Mary Queen of Scots is remembered mainly for her death to the scaffold than for her violent, intimate existence. Within The Other King, Philippa Gregory resurrects her planet and Jane by means of a section from her life that's all-but ignored: Mary’s lengthy incarceration as a “guest” of the Earl of Shrewsbury and his wife, Bess of Hardwick.
