Jacob Abbott (1803 – 1879) was a prolific American writer with vast and complete bibliography. It was not until about 1848 that he and his brother John Stevens Cabot Abbott embarked on the idea of doing a series of biography targeted to young people. His target audience was age "15 to 25", and the Abbott brothers eventually produced a set of biographies that were critically acclaimed, and widely read. Within a few years of their publication, the Abbott biographies became standard reference works of history, and were available in libraries throughout America. They were originally published as the ‘Illustrated History’ series, but were republished many times during the next sixty years in various collections, entitled ‘Famous Characters of History’, ‘Famous Queens of History’, and others. They were most recently republished in the early 1900’s as the ‘Makers of History’ series. In addition to these series, Jacob Abbott wrote at least thirty additional children’s books, as well as many books and articles regarding education for the young, directed at parents and educators. He also wrote several explicitly Christian books, teaching the tenets of Christian theology and moral instruction to the young. Here is what Abraham Lincoln wrote of Abbott's historical series "I want to thank you and your brother for Abbott’s series of Histories. I have not education enough to appreciate the profound works of voluminous historians, and if I had, I have no time to read them. But your series of Histories gives me, in brief compass, just that knowledge of past men and events which I need. I have read them with the greatest interest. To them I am indebted for about all the historical knowledge I have."

With a real focus on her personal interactions, this was the story of Good Queen Bess written late in the 19th Century. I thought a knew a bit about her, but still found some items I hadn't heard of, such as her excommunication by the Pope. The author builds a convincing narrative of how her early life shaped her, and influenced her future marriage (or lack thereof).Also helps to explain all of the secret marriages in her court.

Queen Elizabeth Illustrated History Alive Book 12 eBook Jacob Abbott Blago Kirov Reviews
This book appears to me less interesting than the books I read by the same author.
Perhaps the problem is not attributed to the author, but how to write a book related to a person, who was not like other kings involved persoanlly in fierce battles but sat in London.
Thus there are certain difficulties to write such a person, who appears pale although her Kingdom graw fast and her life was extremely important.
An excellent book on the great Queen. Covers all the bases and provides some deep insights. I would recommend this biography.
did not care for the writers style of writing... very disjointed and sometimes unclear. did like understanding the family tree of Elizabeth
Very informative
Very informative, a well written easy read.
She was strong, tenacious, a leader when Britain
needed a leader. She shaped the future as a world wide leader.
With a real focus on her personal interactions, this was the story of Good Queen Bess written late in the 19th Century. I thought a knew a bit about her, but still found some items I hadn't heard of, such as her excommunication by the Pope. The author builds a convincing narrative of how her early life shaped her, and influenced her future marriage (or lack thereof).
