Review title: Basically a Biography of Robert Devereux Earl of Essex
Product review: I brought this one from just the title knowing the author was one I liked, so your personal rating maybe much higher.Sheila Bishop writes some excellent Regency romancies, this isn't one of them.If you like historical tales of real people then this book may appeal. It deals with both Richard and his sister Penelope Rich, and deals with the last 5 years of his life. The tale is set in 1596 and I suspect a fair bit of work went into the research. I wondered about the word "moppet" since Sheila Bishop's other books are usually accurate so looked it up, first recorded use in the Oxford dictionary 1601 so spot on. A mixture of biography and a writer using words and actions to tell a tale.
