Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Last Days of Mary Stuart: And the Journal of Bourgoyne Her Physician The Journal of Bourgoyne, which I had meant originally to be the text of this volume, is a work of some importance in helping us to elucidate the life and later days of the Queen of Scots. I have considered it necessary, for the benefit of the reader, to reproduce also a Summary of the voluminous correspondence which took place during the same period between Queen Mary and her confreres, and Elizabeth, and the leading ministers and secretaries of the Crown of England. The correspondence discloses the political manoeuvres and secret negotiations of that eventful time - the last six months of Queen Mary´s life: and the Summary occupies the first half of the volume. It has been impossible to restrict it further and convey to the reader what is meant to be conveyed - an intelligible estimate of her prison life, with all its painful vicissitudes. The letters have an important bearing on the character of the Scottish Queen, and illustrate the situation better than can be done by any criticism.
