Summary

Here is an unrivalled and impeccably detailed account of the 'secret services' operated by the great men of Elizabethan England. Their clandestine efforts sprang from the collective Protestant fear provoked by the exiled presence in England of Mary, Queen of Scots. Hayne presents a new look at espionage in Renaissance England and presents complex material in an absorbing way, casting new light on reign of Elizabeth I.
