Four hundred years after Mary's death David and Judy Steel revisit the places she knew during her brief and troubled time in Scotland: Linlithgow Palace, her birthplace, still magnificent in its roofless grandeur; Stirling Castle, her nursery, and the lovely island priory of Inchmahone where the infant queen found refuge; Edinburgh, where she experienced her greatest triumphs and deepest humiliations; the fortresses of the wild Border lands and the rebellious North, and the palaces where she enjoyed music, dancing and the splendours of court life; the scenes of her infatuated courtship with Darnley and of his violent murder, of her abduction by Bothwell and of her last disastrous marriage; her prison on the tiny island of Lochleven; and finally Dundrennan, the peaceful abbey from which she fled in a fishing boat to England - to imprisonment and death." --Cover
