Crowned at nine months, married at sixteen, widowed at eighteen,
implicated in the murder of her second husband, and executed for
treason, Mary Stuart lived a life that could not have been better
imagined by any Hollywood screen writer. Mary, Queen of Scots,
lived during one of the most fascinating periods in history.
Graham's epic work paints a unique picture of this controversial
woman, showing her to be neither a Catholic martyr nor murdering
adulteress but an innocent young woman caught up in the ruthless
sea of sixteenth-century politics, someone who lacked the
shrewdness and empowerment of her contemporaries: Catherine de
Medici, Diane de Poitiers and Elizabeth Tudor. Instead, she relied
on her beauty and charm and tragically allowed herself to be a
victim of circumstance. When she did finally attempt to control her
future, she set in motion the events that would lead her to the
executioner's block, sentenced to die by none other than her cousin
Queen Elizabeth.
