Times Book Review (oct. 16) discusses Mrs. Wilfrid Ward's new historical novel, Tudor Sunset (long mans), and says that, though merely a novel, it is in essence more true than history. The full-length picture which Mrs. Ward (since deceased) draws of Queen Elizabeth, is admitted by this non-catholic reviewer to be pretty close to the facts as we look back at Gloriana to-day. Noting the changed attitude toward Elizabeth the reviewer says: She is no longer 'good Queen Bess, ' but a Shifty, vacillating, cruel-minded opportunist, remarkable for her vigor and untrustworthiness.
