Books, Manuscripts
William Cecil (1520-1598) was Elizabeth I's closest adviser and, as this biography shows, the driving force behind her reign for four decades. A rock of Elizabethan government, Lord Burghley had a large impact on the English state and as a committed Protestant he guided the nation with the confidence of his religious conviction.
