Elizabeth I and her circle / Susan Doran.

• Parents and siblings -- The Suffolk cousins -- Mary Queen of Scots -- James VI of Scotland -- 'Eyes': Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester -- 'Lids': Sir Christopher Hatton -- Her 'most humble vassall': Robert Devereux, Second Earl of Essex -- The women who served -- 'Sir Spirit': Sir William Cecil, Lord Burghley -- The 'Moor': Sir Francis Walsingham -- The 'Pygmy': Sir Robert Cecil.

• This is the story of Elizabeth I's inner circle and the crucial human relationships which lay at the heart of her personal and political life. Using a wide range of original sources--including private letters, portraits, verse, drama, and state papers--Susan Doran provides a vivid and often dramatic account of political life in Elizabethan England and the queen at its center, offering a deeper insight into Elizabeth's emotional and political conduct--and challenging many of the popular myths that have grown up around her.
