Lady Jane Grey Reference Guide

Competition – US Readers win a copy of ‘Crown of Blood: The Deadly Inheritance of Lady Jane Grey’ by Nicola Tallis

Posted on 28th November 2016 by Tamise

‘Crown of Blood is authoritative, thoughtful and elegantly written. Telling use of original sources makes fresh and vivid – as well as moving – the story of a girl too often dismissed as a mere blank canvas onto which others could write. A genuinely impressive debut.’

Sarah Gristwood
