Acclaim for Carolly Erickson "Carolly Erickson is one of the most accomplished and successful historical biographers writing in English." -The Times Literary Supplement The First Elizabeth "Even more readable and absorbing than the justly praised works of Tuchman and Fraser. A vivid and eminently readable portrait of history's favorite Tudor." -The New York Times Book Review "A masterpiece of narrative, a story so absorbing it is as hard to put down as a fine novel." -Los Angeles Times Book Review Alexandra "Gifted . . . breathless . . . heartbreaking . . . Erickson excels." -Chicago Tribune Josephine "An intimate, richly detailed, and candid portrait . . . [Erickson's] scholarly insights combine superbly with a mastery of period manners more often found in the best historical fiction." -Kirkus Reviews Mistress Anne "Carolly Erickson is a most admirable biographer, and this book is highly enjoyable as well as being reliable and acute; indeed, it is popular historical biography at its best." -The Times (London)
