Elizabeth I

by C . Haigh (Author)

Synopsis

The reign of Elizabeth I was one of the most important periods of expansion and growth in British history - the Golden Age . This celebrated and influential study reconsiders how Elizabeth achieved this, and the ways in which she exercised her power. It analyses the nature of her power through an examination of her relations with Parliament, the Council of Ministers, the Church, the nobility, military and the English people themselves.
