Acknowledgements
As I have, during the last few years, been an uninvited guest in Elizabeth’s Bedchamber so too have I encroached shamelessly on the time, generosity, support and patience of many people during the writing of this book. It has been a test of stamina and endurance all round.
The Department of History at Royal Holloway, University of London has been enthusiastic about my work and very supportive of my research and writing. My undergraduates continually question and challenge me to think and rethink. My PhD students, Mariana Brockmann and Nikki Clark, have assisted with some research. The staff of the Cambridge University Library have proved continuingly helpful, friendly and supportive, as I have piled books on my desk and submitted endless request slips. Similarly helpful have been the staff of the British Library and the National Archives.
A number of scholars and writers have assisted me and been generous with their time and knowledge. Alice Hunt is a constant source of encouragement, friendship and inspiring discussion. Charlotte Merton generously gave her time and expertise to read through the completed manuscript. Jane Eade, Sebastian Edwards, Olivia Fryman, Sasha Handley, Maria Hayward, Carole Levin and Nigel Llewellyn have also responded helpfully to questions and queries. James McConnachie has been a hugely helpful and discerning reader during the book’s early stages and Jo Browning Wroe has been a valuable library comrade and supportive friend. Rebecca Stott has remained a great mentor and friend, who continues to ask difficult questions and support my writing. Rebecca and I have hosted regular ‘salons’ with historical writers and so I have had the benefit and privilege of inspiring conversation with the very best practitioners of their craft, including Sarah Dunant, Philippa Gregory, Stella Tillyard, Tom Holland, Juliet Gardiner, Kate Summerscale, Malcolm Gaskill and David Kynaston.
Bloomsbury has proved once again to have been the friendliest, most supportive, efficient and ambitious publisher that I could have imagined. It is a publishing house full of energy, vision and commitment to books and their authors. Michael Fishwick is a brilliantly inspiring and insightful editor, a wise critic, and a loyal supporter of me and the book. Anna Simpson is a hidden gem – friendly, helpful, organised and efficient; she quite simply makes things happen behind the scenes and curates the transformation from manuscript to printed book. It has been a great pleasure and relief to work with Kate Johnson for the copyediting, and once again she has worked her magic with meticulous care and incisive comment. Ellen Williams and all the publicity team at Bloomsbury continue to do a fantastic job.
Catherine Clarke, my agent at Felicity Bryan Associates, has been all and more than an agent should be – honest, encouraging, supportive, and discerning. She is a very loyal and enthusiastic champion upon whom I rely hugely. My writing career to date has everything to do with her mentoring. Zoe Pagnamenta my US agent has proved equally committed to the book, as has Katie Haines of The Agency. My ‘home’ literary festival, Cambridge Wordfest, of which I am a proud patron, has been a place of great inspiration and fun during the long months of writin
g and research and the Festival Director Cathy Moore has been both a loyal supporter and a valued friend. My debts to other friends are equally great: Jim and Kate Godfrey, Rosie Peppin Vaughan, Pedro Ramos Pinto, Maureen Parry, Alice and James McConnachie, Jo Maybin, Emma Spearing, Chris Reynolds, Caelum Spearing, Layla Evans, Max Delderfield, Bluebelle Storm Evans Delderfield, Tiffany, Chris and Joshua Britton, Jacky Hess, Victoria Alcock, Rebecca Edwards Newman, Peter and Isobel Maddison, Nan James, Sandra Swarbrick and family. All have got used to my need for early nights, my preoccupied conversations and the general eccentricity that the process of writing and research brings. Linda and David Downes, Sally Downes and Lucy and Pete Gratton have also been continually interested and supportive of me and my writing. One notable absentee from my book launch will be the late Suzy Oakes who was always a great supporter of mine and a popular Cambridge figure.
My family have remained a constant source of love, support and encouragement. During the writing of the book we lost my grandfather, Eric Nason, whose much repeated refrain, ‘Have you finished the book yet?’ continues to resound in my head. I hope this book is fitting to his memory. Thanks are owed to my sister Amy and to Martin Inglis, and to my twin sister Emily who remains entirely unselfish in her support and encouragement. My niece Lily and nephews Sam and Bailiee have been refreshingly disinterested in the book and forced me to engage with life beyond the sixteenth century. I continue to rely on my parents, Celia and Paul Whitelock, who have been as unfailing in their love, concern and support as they have been in their desire for the book to be finished. Never has a final full stop been so highly anticipated or hard won.
Finally, I would like to thank Kate Downes who has continued to support me with unselfish patience, care and concern and upon whom I have depended enormously.
A shared achievement indeed.
