BY birth, she also has a rival claim to the throne of Elizabeth 1, who rules as the Queen of England. Mary asserts her claim to the English throne, threatening Elizabeth's sovereignity. Betrayel, rebellion, and conspiracies within each court imperil both queens, driving them apart, as each woman experiences the bitter cost of powerMarie Antoinette: This is the story of a fourteen-year-old girl who is taken from her parents to become the Queen of France and how she must grow up in front of the entire countryThe Queen: In this intimate, moving portrait of Queen Elizabeth and Tony Blair following the death of Diana, the two leaders struggle to reach a compromise between what was a private tragedy for the Royal Family and the public's demand for an open display of mourning
