Alison Weir Press Reviews
'The compelling drama of Elizabeth's life, the traumatic perils she faced as a young woman, the murder of her brothers by Richard III and the later mystery of Perkin Warbeck, are richly presented.' -- Iain Finlayson The Times
'A meticulous scholar... Weir sincerely admires her subject, doing honor to an almost forgotten queen' New York Times
'The great asset of this book is the combination of the political and the personal... Weir is a fine writer with a wonderful gift for description.' -- Linda Porter Literary Review
'Weir has a shrewd sense of what will seize the imagination of the keen historical amateur.' The Independent
'Weir adheres to the conventional story without giving much weight to new theories, preferring instead to stick with the facts about daily life for a Plantagenet princess-turned-Tudor queen.' -- Lesley McDowell Herald
