Book Description

Excerpt from A Bibliography of Works Relating to Mary, Queen of Scots, 1544 1700 While among the authors who have contributed to it are to be found men celebrated in the ranks of literature - as historians, poets, critics, dramatists, and novelists - many books are to be noted written by men little known in the world of letters, thus testifying to the world-wide interest which the history and misfortunes of the unfortunate Queen have called forth. In the following pages an attempt has been made to enumerate the books printed between the date of Queen Mary's birth and the year I 700, which treat of the various branches of her history. Many of these books are commonly to be met with; others are of such rarity that they must be searched for in cabinets of the curious, or on the shelves of the choicer of the public libraries.
