Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Times of Arabella Stuart In the autumn of the year 1574 the Countess of Shrewsbury, accompanied by her daughter Elizabeth, travelled to one of their splendid homes, Rufford Abbey. Ostensibly the Countess went thither to receive an honoured guest, Margaret, Countess of Lennox, who, together with her son, was journeying from London to Settrington, and must thus pass within a mile or two of Rufford. Presumably the Earl of Shrewsbury believed in this simple plan. Had he penetrated to his wife´s real reasons he, foreseeing the complications certain to arise, would have forbidden the journey. The Countess of Shrewsbury had some little time before attempted to negotiate unsuccessfully a marriage between Elizabeth and a son of the Duchess of Suffolk. Nothing daunted, however, she was still determined on a wedding - only the bridegroom was changed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
