Article on Mary in the BBC History Magazine

I have various articles on Mary that may be of interest to readers of this blog. Here is one published in March 2006 in the BBC History Magazine. The article is by David Loades and provides his assessment of Mary’s reign and of her character. Just click on each scan to enlarge the picture to read.

I sent it in with the title "Can This Reputation Be Saved?" but the editors changed it to "There's Something About Bloody Mary"! It is definitely a generational, "american" thing (a woman's monthly magazine used to run a column called "Can This Marriage be Saved" but the movie title adaptation is more au courant!) Here's the link:
