HOWEVER, this e-book ranks with the very best of Elizabethan, ( particularly Elizabeth herself ), writings. The author is able to seamlessly integrate the "Queen" , always on public display from the moment She emerged from Her Bedchamber with her Lady-Bedfellows, and the woman who was afraid of the dark, fearful of ageing, often ill, and endured--with the CONSTANT ministry of her ladies, the ever increasing process of producing the face and body of the Sovereign of England; ever young, beautiful, and strong. In addition to spending HOURS concocting and applying a pharmacy of toxic mixtures to all visible parts of the Royal Body, hours were also required to clothe said body in layers and layers of an enormous variety of every kind of material, ( usually embroidered, stitched, tatted, woven, etc.by her " Ladies of the Privy and Bedchambers " ). They washed, dressed, and bejeweled the Queen day and night, provided support, comfort, amusement, advice, and all other company and service that might be needed. And with few exceptions, these Ladies felt, and were, HONOURED to be chosen in this capacity. They knew her in ways impermissible to all others. This is a Wonderful book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars A very interesting read. *by M***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 14, 2014* I thought I knew all there was to know about Elizabeth I. Could not have been more wrong. While an inside view of her "private life" is glimpsed, such as her eating habits, dressing, bathing and oh, the makeup, you also see the woman herself, not as a queen, but as a simple human. I guess you can say she was two people residing in one body, a Queen, strong, willful and stubborn making her way in a man's world. The other, a woman with all the dreams of women in her time, a husband, family, love. All this plays out in her treatment of her closest and long time ladies of the bedchamber.Elizabeth I would have been a psychiatrist's dream for sure, but you don't need a PhD to understand the heart of this amazing woman. This book not only provides an intimate portrait of this Queen, but also her political life which was chock full of danger and turmoil for most of her reign.Very informative and well written. I enjoyed it thoroughly. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars I liked this book.... *by E***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 6, 2014* I actually liked this book. I had not really read much about Queen Elizabeth I, so much of this book was enlightening. Sure, she was a jealous soul, but the author brought out that she had a very soft side when she lost those that she loved the most. There were many parts in the book that I enjoyed and it's ability to take you into her inner court and how much work was put into making her look good (smile). And, she was selfish with the women that took care of her in that she came first and foremost at all times when they were busy having babies and then made to report back ASAP to be with her. I thought it was very interesting about the death of Mary Queen of Scots. This book was well written and you have a feeling after you read it that you know her. So, I give it 5 stars because I really did enjoy reading it. And to the author, Anna Whitelock, job well done! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/199685-the-queens-bed-an-intimate-history-of-elizabeths-court-hardcover](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/199685-the-queens-bed-an-intimate-history-of-elizabeths-court-hardcover) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-03*
