Beem Charles. The Foreign Relations of Elizabeth I
Palgrave Macmillan, 2011 - 248 p. ISBN10: 0230112145 ISBN13: 9780230112148 (eng)

This collection brings together provocative essays examining various facets of Elizabethan foreign affairs, encompassing England and The British Isles, continental Europe, and the Islamic world. As an entirely domestic queen who never physically left her realm, Elizabeth I cast an inordinately large shadow inteationally. The essays in this volume collectively reveal a ruler and her kingdom more connected and integrated into the wider world than is usually acknowledged in conventional studies of Elizabethan foreign affairs.
