The New Royalty World recommends this book, especially for people who are interested in Scottish history.\" - The New Royalty World\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the early hours of 10 February 1567 a large explosion ripped through the Old Provost's lodgings at Kirk o' Field, Edinburgh, where Mary Queen of Scotland's consort, Henry Lord Darnley, was staying. Darnley's body was found with that of his valet in a neighbouring garden the next morning. The Queen's husband had been suffocated and the ramifications for Mary and Scottish history would be far-reaching.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLord Darnley cuts an infamous figure in Scottish and Tudor history. In life he proved a controversial character, and his murder at Kirk o' Field in 1567 remains one of British history's great, unsolved mysteries - establishing whether Mary was implicated has taxed historians ever since.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this engaging and well-researched biography, Robert Stedall re-examines Darnley's life and his murder. It is not to be missed; his investigation brings new light and compelling conclusions to a story surrounded by political betrayal, murder, falsified evidence and conspiracy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pen and Sword History\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/30\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781399078351\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352","brand":"Robert Stedall","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52161310523573,"sku":"9781399078351","price":24.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_3a77291f-e5c1-4a5d-b87d-9285afde90d2.jpg?v=1768317783","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/mary-queen-of-scots-downfall-the-life-and-murder-of-henry-lord-darnley-9781399078351","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
