Queen of France at sixteen, widowed at eighteen, Mary Stuart defies pressure to remarry and instead returns to her native Scotland to reclaim her rightful throne. By birth, she also has a rival claim to the throne of Elizabeth I, who rules as the Queen of England. Mary asserts her claim to the English throne, threatening Elizabeth's sovereignty. Betrayal, rebellion, and conspiracies within each court imperil both Queens, driving them apart, as each woman experiences the bitter cost of power.

Historically Unrecognizable submitted by GJBarnett2 on August 12, 2019, 9:08pm Historical Revisionism at its most banal. All the women are good, all the men are bad and if they'd just gotten out of the way, all would have been sweetness and light.
