Queen.","description":"Elizabeth I is one of England's most famous monarchs, whose story as the 'Virgin Queen' is well known. But queenship was by no means a certain path for Henry VIII's younger daughter, who spent the majority of her early years as a girl with an uncertain future. This  colourful  and  immensely detailed  biography charts Elizabeth's turbulent and unstable upbringing, from the Wyatt Rebellion - a plot to topple her half-sister, Mary, from her throne - to the predatory attentions of Sir Thomas Seymour and the heartbreaking rift with her beloved stepmother Katherine Parr. When Elizabeth became queen, she had already endured  more tumult than many monarchs experienced in a lifetime , and this  truly comprehensive account  explores the dangers and tragedies that plagued her early life. Best-selling author Nicola Tallis draws on  primary sources  written by Elizabeth herself and her contemporaries, providing  an extensive and thorough study of an exceptionally resilient youngster  whose early life would shape the queen she later became. This is a  nuanced, authentic and utterly gripping  biography that throws new light onto the early life of this  iconic monarch . The  heart racing story  of Elizabeth's youth as she steered her way through perilous waters towards England's throne is one of the most  sensational  of its time.","brand":"Book Grocer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48573811654875,"sku":"9781789297492-RETAIL","price":25.49,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/f220bfcd-ebef-4e7b-a3d3-9e1dce33f815_a8f6993e-3a2c-4dda-b5e1-691a4d85c214.jpg?v=1775579186","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9781789297492-retail-young-elizabeth-princess-prisoner-queen","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
