Follows the life of the strong-willed queen who ascended the throne at the age of twenty-five, and ruled England at the time of Shakespeare and the defeat of the Spanish Armada....When she became Queen of England, Elizabeth's counselors urged her to marry quickly and turn the responsibilities over to her husband. But in stalling, changing her mind, and playing one side against the other, Elizabeth outwitted them all and steered her country to the glorious era of peace and security known as the Elizabethan Age.
