Unknown to History: A Story of the Captivity of Mary of Scotland is a historical novel written by Charlotte M. Yonge. The book tells the story of Mary, Queen of Scots, who was imprisoned in England for 19 years by her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I. The story is told from the perspective of Mary's fictional maid, Gillian, who accompanies her throughout her captivity. The novel explores the themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the struggle for power in the royal court. Yonge's vivid descriptions of the harsh conditions of Mary's captivity and the political intrigue of the time make for a compelling read. The novel is based on historical events and characters, but Yonge takes some creative liberties to add depth to the story. Overall, Unknown to History is a gripping tale of a queen's tragic fate and the people who were caught up in her struggle for survival.1883.
