Lady Jane Grey is the queen England rejected and one of the most elusive and tragic characters in English history. Here, Eric Ives, master historian and storyteller presents a compelling new interpretation of Jane and her role in the accession crisis of 1553, with wide-ranging implications for our understanding of the workings of Tudor politics and the exercise of power in early modern England. Presents a vivid portrait of Lady Jane Grey, one of the least studied figures of English history, depicting Jane as a forceful, educated individual; Subjects Jane's writings to an original literary and religious analysis; Demonstrates that Edward VI's will gave Jane and her supporters strong legal grounds for her claim to the throne; Offers a fresh assessment of other characters involved in the 1553 accession crisis: including Edward VI; Mary Tudor; and John Dudley, the duke of Northumberland; Illuminates the inner workings of Tudor politics and the exercise of power in Early Modern England. - Publisher.
