Perfect for you if...

You're fascinated by how women wielded power behind (and on) thrones, and tired of male-written histories that got the story wrong.
You love the intricate politics of Tudor and Stuart courts but want to explore a less familiar kingdom.
You enjoy accessible historical biography that demolishes myths rather than perpetuating them.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer narrative-driven fiction disguised as history over rigorous archival work.
You're looking for breathless scandal and romantic drama rather than serious historical analysis.
You want a comprehensive political history of Scotland itself; this is specifically about the women, not the wars.

About this book

Scottish Queens, 1034–1714 examines the lives of Scottish queens who ruled in their own right as well as consorts, a subject largely overlooked in traditional historical accounts. The book addresses questions about figures including Lady MacBeth—examining whether she matched Shakespeare's portrayal—St Margaret, Margaret Logie and her influence over her husband David II, and Anne of Denmark, consort to James VI, who has often been dismissed in historical records. Dr. Marshall's research explores these queens and consorts across nearly seven centuries of Scottish history, reconsidering their roles and legacies in shaping the nation.
