In the third of the "Women Who Were Kings" series, we follow the life of one of England's most celebrated monarchs--Queen Elizabeth I. From her difficult early childhood and her struggle to ascend to a throne that would later see her as the progenitor of a Golden Age, this story aims to chart Elizabeth's political struggles amidst the wider religious turmoil in Europe at the time.

Elizabeth always kept her own counsel, and as the "Virgin Queen", it was never easy to know what she was thinking. More reactive than proactive, her remarkable reign nonetheless laid the foundations for the later British Empire, even at great personal cost. What were her small personal triumphs, and private moments of despair? What is her story?

Properly researched, lavishly illustrated, and with footnotes and a bibliography, this graphic novel biography is suited for anyone with an interest in one of England's most famous monarch. For Ages 10+.

Industry Reviews

"In true Chan style, the artwork is amazing and so expressive in the faces of each character. However, the part I really love is the list of references included in the back of the books PLUS a full set of footnotes and artistic sources on Chan’s website. The storytelling is well-researched and presented for kids aged 10 years and over, with great detail into the sociological environment at the time. An excellent starting point for younger kids looking at specific historical figures."
