History of England From the Fall of Wolsey to the Death of Elizabeth, Volume 7 (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

Viewing history as a grand drama, Froude emphasized great personalities and disdained the scientific approach in his historical writing. This epic, twelve-volume narrative presents a vivid portrait of a tumultuous era. Volume seven commences with the accession of Queen Elizabeth, following her reign until the mid-1560s, closing with a chapter on Mary Stuart and the diplomatic relations between England and Spain.
