Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Life Was Like In the Realm of Elizabeth tells the fascinating story of Queen Elizabeth's steely determination and skillful political manoeuvring along with many other compelling tales of the men and women of Elizabethan England. One volume in a world-history series from Time-Life Books, In the Realm of Elizabeth focuses on the daily lives of the Elizabethans in London and in the English countryside, on board ship with Sir Francis Drake, and alongside Sir Walter Raleigh's colonists in Virginia. From contemporary letters, diaries, church and government documents, and other historical sources come the intriguing stories of commoners and kings: among them Elizabeth's feisty father, the much married Henry VIII, the fiery playwright Ben Jonson; Mary, Queen of Scots, Elizabeth's cousin and rival for her throne, and the so-called counterfeit crank, Nicholas Jennings, who made a nice living pretending to be destitute.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • An intimate, captivating portrait of Queen Elizabeth I that brings the enigmatic ruler to vivid life, from acclaimed biographer Alison Weir “An extraordinary piece of historical scholarship.”—The Cleveland Plain Dealer Perhaps the most influential sovereign England has ever known, Queen Elizabeth I remained an extremely private person throughout her reign, keeping her own counsel and sharing secrets with no one—not even her closest, most trusted advisers. Now, in this brilliantly researched, fascinating chronicle, Alison Weir shares provocative new interpretations and fresh insights on this enigmatic figure. Against a lavish backdrop of pageantry and passion, intrigue and war, Weir dispels the myths surrounding Elizabeth I and examines the contradictions of her character. Elizabeth I loved the Earl of Leicester, but did she conspire to murder his wife? She called herself the Virgin Queen, but how chaste was she through dozens of liaisons? She never married—was her choice to remain single tied to the chilling fate of her mother, Anne Boleyn? An enthralling epic, The Life of Elizabeth I is a mesmerizing, stunning chronicle of a trailblazing monarch.

From the airplane overhead to the phones in our pockets to the choir girl putting her arm around the metalhead. As hard as it is for us to see sometimes, we all exist within the realm of possibility. Most of the limits are of our own world’s devising. And yet, every day we each do so many things that were once impossible to us. Enter The Realm of Possibility and meet a boy whose girlfriend is in love with Holden Caulfield; a girl who loves the boy who wears all black; a boy with the perfect body; and a girl who writes love songs for a girl she can’t have. These are just a few of the captivating characters readers will get to know in this intensely heartfelt new novel about those ever-changing moments of love and heartbreak that go hand-in-hand with high school.
