Critic Reviews
Antonia Fraser has written an excellent book which unravels the whole story of the plot, exploring the background, keeping close to the evidence, and, above all, bringing the characters to life ... a judicious and very readable account (Hugh Trevor-Roper)
Told with impressive scholarship and panache. The result is a narrative that is clear, balanced, and builds to its denouement with a sense of pace and tension worthy of a John le Carré novel (John Adamson)
Every few years a work of history appears that succeeds in connecting its subject to the deeper questions troubling modern society. This is one such book (Amanda Foreman)
It has a fine narrative flow, for Antonia Fraser recognises that history is essentially a story, and a gripping one at that. She writes with verve and imagination (Kenneth Baker)
Fraser's meticulously researched book is an excellent read ... Antonia Fraser has shed much light on one of the most controversial episodes in English history (Martin Jacques)
An awe-inspiring tale ... It makes superb armchair entertainment (Paul Johnson)
Eloquent and moving (Jonathan Clark)
History as it should be written (Roy Strong)
