Young Elizabeth: Becoming a Queen with Nicola Tallis

Before she was Gloriana, celebrating her victory over the Spanish Armada; before she was the Virgin Queen, revered in England and across Europe; before she was the longest reigning Tudor monarch, she was just young Elizabeth. Dr Nicola Tallis shares the journey of the young princess and how her early trials and turmoil prepared her to take the throne as the final, and some say greatest, Tudor.

I very much enjoyed reading the 'Uncrowned Queen' and look forward to Dr Tallis's 'Young Elizabeth'. As you mentioned, the fact both ladies (the 'Two Bookends' of Tudor history) have been researched by a single historian will make for fascinating comparisons. Many thanks for this interview. -Elizabeth Cumming.

I agree! I appreciate Nicola's approach to the study of these "bookends" of the dynasty--Henry VIII might take up a lot of space, but I think the women made the Tudors! Thank you, and I'm so glad you enjoyed.
