About this ebook

Queen Elizabeth is perhaps the most legendary and celebrated ruler in English history. Yet do you really know her as well as you think you do?

In this beautiful narrative biography you explore Elizabeth’s path from “Lady Elizabeth” to “Gloriana” through the lens of her relationship with Robert Dudley, a relationship far more contentious than most people believe. Politics and religion collide, provoking Elizabeth to console herself with her music, and a hard decision lays before her as plots against her life threatens her throne.

Take the journey to Gloriana and discover a side to Elizabeth you never knew existed.

Student - Teacher Edition features challenging puzzles and study guide questions after every chapter, plus the appendices with six medieval and Elizabethan songs, a detailed timeline, and an extensive suggested reading list.

This book continues "Mary Queen of the Scots."

    ABOUT THIS SERIES

    PROLOGUE

    The white sails of the Abigail shined brightly from its three tallest masts. As the crew readied the ship to depart Plymouth and as the ship’s final passengers boarded, Edward Drinker, a lad of thirteen years from Sussex looked at the water with a mix of excitement and fear. What would life in the New World be like? Were things really so bad in England so as to be worth risking so many lives on a four month voyage to Massachusetts Bay Colony? What would the other passengers think of his family’s Quaker values and beliefs? Would they be accepted for choosing to worship without a priest or formal clergy, praying together in silence as they waited for inspiration and wisdom from the Holy Spirit?

    With his parents Philip Drinker and Elizabeth Marshall below decks with most of the others, Edward felt alone. Taking out his recorder from his coat, he played a few improvised notes before putting it away. Elizabeth Epps, also thirteen years old, walked up to him, I like that. You play well!

    Not as well as I sing, confessed Edward immodestly.

    Do you sing in church? she asked.

    No, no of course not. Why would I sing in church?

    Because it is a great way to glorify God! I love to sing ‘Dona Nobis Pacem.’ Do you know that one? It is just that same Latin phrase over and over again in the most beautiful melody.

    I do not think I know that one; my family and I don’t believe in popery or anything resembling that. We certainly do not feel the king is the head of God’s church. In fact we believe that God is capable of speaking to everyone; we do not need anyone to tell us what God says or interpret the Bible for us. So no, I do not know that song. I hope I do not offend you with that. A lot of people get really angry about it; they think we are against the king and his authority, explained Edward.

    I think a lot of people are against the king now. I heard we’ve been without a parliament for six years! The king taxes without the content of anyone. And of course he married that catholic Henrietta Maria of France! He thinks he is god on Earth! What ever happened to traditional English liberty?

    King Charles is not the first ruler in England to believe the king is accountable to no one but God. As a matter of fact, all the rulers of the Tudor dynasty were like that: Henry the Seventh, Henry the Eighth, Edward the Sixth, Queen Mary, and of course Queen Elizabeth whose memory remains golden and ever bright in our hearts, remembered Edward. "And then of course there was King James. I know many people really love him for commissioning the Bible that bears his name, but in truth he really was a bad ruler who saw himself above the law. He could have helped England and Scotland heal from centuries of warfare and
