Schiller's grand historical tragedy, a battle of wits between Mary Queen of Scots and her captor, Queen Elizabeth I.

Leicester, Elizabeth's favorite and Mary's ex-lover, engineers a meeting of the two Queens - an encounter which never took place in historical fact - from which Mary emerges triumphant but doomed.

I absolutely loved this book, full of intrigue and fascinating characters. The show-down between Mary Stuart and Elizabeth 1st is wonderful. Even though the event is fiction, Schiller keeps them in character. This drama has made me want to read more about Mary Stuart and more of Schiller.
