THE BETRAYAL OF MARY, QUEEN OF SCOTS Elizabeth I and Her Greatest Rival

As Anne Flosnik narrates, listeners learn of Mary Stuart's life as she moves from Scotland to France and back again. After a tumultuous reign, she flees across Scotland to safety in England under the protection of Queen Elizabeth I. This biography focuses on betrayals in the various courts where Mary lived. Betrayed by her Scottish counselors and spouses before, during, and after she takes her place on the Scottish throne, Mary Stuart lives an unsettled life. Flosnik delivers the historical and political narrative in a husky, clear voice. Scarce dialogue and documents are read more tersely, using subtle accents that add variety to this new study of the life of this famous queen.
