Publisher's Synopsis

""Mary Stuart 1587"" is a historical novel written by Alexandre Dumas that tells the story of Mary, Queen of Scots during her imprisonment in England in the year 1587. The novel explores the political and religious tensions of the time, as well as the personal struggles of Mary as she faces her impending execution. Dumas portrays Mary as a tragic figure, caught between her loyalty to her Catholic faith and her desire to regain her throne in Scotland. The novel also features a cast of historical figures, including Queen Elizabeth I, who must navigate their own political challenges as they deal with Mary's fate. Through vivid descriptions and engaging dialogue, Dumas brings to life the tumultuous events of this period in history, offering readers a captivating glimpse into the life of one of the most fascinating figures of the Renaissance era.A week after the events we have related, as nine o'clock in the evening had just sounded from the castle bell, and the queen and Mary Seyton were sitting at a table where they were working at their tapestry, a stone thrown from the courtyard passed through the window bars, broke a pane of glass, and fell into the room. The queen's first idea was to believe it accidental or an insult.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
