Description
From New York Times best-selling author of Becoming Queen Victoria, a new history of Mary Queen of Scots and Elizabeth I that reveals how the most important relationship of their life - their friendship - changed them forever.
Elizabeth and Mary were cousins and queens, but eventually it became impossible for them to live together in the same world. This is the story of two women struggling for supremacy in a man's world, when no one thought a woman could govern. They both had to negotiate with men - those who wanted their power and those who wanted their bodies - who were determined to best them.
In their worlds, female friendship and alliances were unheard of, but for many years theirs was the only friendship that endured. They were as fascinated by each other as lovers; until they became enemies. Enemies so angry and broken that one of them had to die, and so Elizabeth ordered the execution of Mary.
But first, they were each other's lone female friends in a violent man's world. Their relationship was one of love, affection, jealousy, antipathy - and finally death.

Well researched
I enjoyed this book. The writing, the subjects, and the woman reading the story are awesome. Enjoyed it immensely. An in-depth look at the relationship between Mary Queen of Scots, Elizabeth I, and the various characters that make up their place in history. Well worth your time :)

Basic info is wrong.
In the first chapter, the author refers to Lord Darnley as Mary’s first husband, not her second. If the author can’t even get such basic facts straight, how we can believe the rest of the book?
