Lady Jane Grey and Her Times by Ida A. Taylor is a sympathetic biography of the learned young noblewoman who reigned for just nine days as Queen of England before her execution. Taylor sets Jane’s brief, tragic story within the dangerous dynastic politics of the mid-Tudor period and the struggle over the succession.

The book portrays a gifted and devout girl made the instrument of others’ ambitions, and the religious and political currents that swept her to the scaffold. It is a moving study of one of the most poignant figures in English royal history. This free EPUB download offers the complete biography.
