Джон Гай — библиография

Soon to be a major film, this is a dramatic reinterpretation of the life of Mary, Queen of Scots by one of the leading historians of this period.

Специалист по истории Тюдоров с мировым именем, автор целого ряда научно-популярных бестселлеров Джон Гай переосмысляет поздний период биографии одной из наиболее известных правительниц Англии, Елизаветы I.
