Description: "Mary, Queen of Scots, that most charismatic of monarchs, has been much written and speculated about. Was she betrayed, condemned by her cousin Elizabeth, or was she a murdering adulteress with her husband's blood on her hands? This book, specially written to accompany the exhibition of the same name (National Museum of Scotland, Edinburgh, 28 June-17 November 2013, takes a fresh look at Mary, using over 120 objects associated with her - jewels, textiles, furniture, documents and portraits from Scottish and international collections. This is the first major exhibition of Mary, Queen of Scots artefacts for more than a century and the book provides an authoritative analysis of what is authentic and what is not"--Publisher's description.
