A fascinating read
The England of Elizabeth (The Elizabethan Age, by A L Rowse #1) 
This edition published in 2012 by The Folio Society Ltd
The author does not suffer fools at all gladly. If you don’t understand what he says then it’s your hard luck. This is a heavy and elaborate subject dealt with in an extraordinarily humorous manner and with sympathy and love for his subject shining through. He tells it as it is quoting many a learned friend and those not quite so friendly. A fascinating insight to the age of this most famous of monarchs, dispelling many a myth.
