SO YOU WANT TO DEVELOP AN UNHEALTHY OBSESSION WITH ELIZABETH THE FIRST AND MOST FABULOUS?

Well, this here’s the post for you. Being a complete compilation of all films, miniseries (miniserieses? miniserii?), and ten of my favorite books (five fiction, five non-fiction). Go forth and read/watch/bask in the glow of the awesome Elizabeth Tudor! Downloads given where available; unfortunately I couldn’t find many for the older films, but they’re well worth a purchase if you can!
