Unknown to History is a historical novel by Charlotte M. Yonge that tells the story of Mary, Queen of Scots' captivity in England. The novel is set in the 16th century and follows Mary's life after she is imprisoned by her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I. The book explores the political and religious tensions of the time, as well as the personal struggles of Mary and those around her. The story is told through the eyes of a fictional character, a young girl named Maud who becomes Mary's servant. Maud's perspective allows the reader to see Mary's captivity from a different angle and provides insight into the daily life of a captive queen. The novel is well-researched and provides a vivid portrayal of the era. It is a compelling read for anyone interested in historical fiction, particularly those interested in the life of Mary, Queen of Scots.1883.
