Elizabeth
Unabridged; Written by David Starkey; Read by Robert Powell
It's four centuries since the death of Elizabeth I, but she is very far from being forgotten. Under her rule, England saw prosperity, religious tolerance, increasing international importance and an extraordinary flourishing of trade, exploration and the arts in all their forms, most strikingly music and literature. At the centre of all this activity was the figure of Elizabeth herself - vain, capricious and infuriatingly indecisive, but possessed of a deep-rooted concern for the good of her people, exceptional charisma, and a remarkable gift for self-preservation and self-presentation, qualities that made her more popular, both during her lifetime and afterwards, than any other English monarch before or since.
