Publisher's Synopsis
Effusions Of Love From Chatelar To Mary, Queen Of Scotland is a book written by William Henry Ireland and published in 1808. The book is a collection of letters supposedly written by James Hepburn, 4th Earl of Bothwell, to Mary, Queen of Scots during their brief and tumultuous relationship. The letters, which are presented as a series of passionate love notes, detail Bothwell's adoration for Mary and his desire to be with her forever. The book is considered to be a work of historical fiction, as there is no concrete evidence that the letters were actually written by Bothwell. Nevertheless, the book is a fascinating look at the romantic and political intrigue surrounding Mary, Queen of Scots during her reign. The letters are written in a poetic and flowery style, typical of the Romantic era, and provide a glimpse into the emotional world of one of Scotland's most controversial historical figures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
