Elizabeth I and Her Enemies - DVD

Queen Elizabeth I was one of England's greatest monarchs, but she spent her life surrounded by enemies. Born in 1533 to King Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn, Elizabeth was declared illegitimate when her mother was beheaded after losing the king's favor. Elizabeth fought hard for her crown-and even harder to keep it-as foreign powers, scheming nobles, and members of her own family sought to topple her. Surviving assassination attempts, rebellions, and accusations of treason, Elizabeth had to overcome numerous adversaries to become one of history's most remarkable figures.
