Summary: "The Tragedy of Fotheringay" by Mary Monica Maxwell-Scott is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative centers on the life and death of Mary Queen of Scots, particularly her imprisonment and trial leading to her execution. The book draws on the journal of Dominique Bourgoing, Mary's physician, along with other historical documents to paint a vivid picture of this tumultuous period. The opening of the novel establishes the historical context of Mary Stuart's imprisonment at Chartley and her subsequent transfer to Fotheringay Castle as part of a conspiracy against Queen Elizabeth I. Through the eyes of Bourgoing, the reader witnesses Mary's distress and resolve as she faces separation from her attendants and ultimately the impending trial. The narrative delves into the political intrigue surrounding her captivity, her indomitable spirit in the face of betrayal, and sets the stage for the dramatic unfolding of events that led to her tragic demise.
