About this product
Product Information
Bess Ralegh (1565-1647), wife to the legendary Sir Walter, played all her long life for high political stakes in a dangerous and violent world, though successive monarchs sought to destroy her and those she loved. She lost her husband and two of her three children; she herself was imprisoned, interrogated, banished and made destitute. Each time she came back, taking on her enemies with a courage and resilience remarkable in her own time and ours. As lover, wife and widow of Sir Walter Ralegh, Bess was the hidden force behind his spectacular public achievements, the stable point in his turbulent private life, and the shrewd creator of his reputation after his death. Having resisted being married off in her teens, she began a passionate and illicit sexual relationship with Ralegh in her twenties; her Intelligence and business acumen were exceptional, despite having no rights as a woman (twice she built a fortune from nothing); and her remarkable emotional strength sustained her through personal tragedy and political disasters that broke many others, including her own husband. A woman in a man's world, Bess's ambitious pursuit of power and wealth, and justice for herself and her children, make compelling reading.
