Has anyone here read Derek Wilson's new life of Walsingham? (Sir Francis Walsingham: A Courtier in an Age of Terror)
I'm interested in a life of Walsingham, but there's a plethora of recent ones and I don't know which to choose. Apparently Alan Haynes' is good, though I've also read some mixed reviews of that one. Can anyone help me out?
Thanks!

How about Her Majesty's Spymaster? It's not exactly a full-scale, 400-page kind of biography. But short can be a good thing, especially in an introductory book.

Anyone have Robert Hutchinson's England's Spymaster? I have not yet read it, but the style is forthright - the very first sentence compares him to Winston Churchill.

#2: How about Her Majesty's Spymaster?
A friend of mine who is a Walsingham scholar says it's pretty good.

I was entering some data into Queen Elizabeth's record just now, adding Relationships, and you have no idea how tempting it was to add Francis Walsingham under "Agents" :-)
