Status Updates From The Betrayal of Mary, Queen...

So Elizabeth does have a biographical account of her upbringing here, but it’s in far more detail compared to Mary’s and I don’t think that is down to lack of sources, since Mary became Queen when she was six days old thus immediately important and noteworthy. In comparison Elizabeth was never expected to be Queen, but the author has given far more detail for Elizabeth. I don’t agree with everything she says

Mostly so far this is a biography of Mary Queen of Scot’s childhood and adolescence. Whereas Elizabeth’s has been skipped because it’s so well known. I’m really enjoying it and learning loads that I had no clue about

Another audio book from the library.

I’m hoping to target gaps in my knowledge this year of the Tudor period, so for general reading I’m focusing on 1485-1520s then 1547-1603, as my knowledge mostly concerns Henry VIII’s later reign and then Elizabeth’s life and her time during Edward and Mary’s reigns.

I gave up….way too much detail for me.
