Elizabeth : The Forgotten Years by John Guy
from the dustjacket:
In this groundbreaking biography, John Guy introduces us to a mature woman who is refreshingly unfamiliar: at once powerful and vulnerable, wilful and afraid. Elizabeth confronts challenges at home and abroad: a ruinous war against the Catholic powers of France and Spain, revolt in Ireland, a conspiracy to place Mary Queen of Scots on her throne. She reluctantly allows the maverick Sir Walter Scott to set up a colony in Virginia, and wonders who she can really trust.
