Bess of Hardwick's Letters is the first book-length study of the c.250 letters to and from the remarkable Elizabethan dynast, matriarch and builder of houses Bess of Hardwick (c.1527-1608). Incorporating a range of historical sources-including Account Books, inventories, needlework and textile art and architecture-author Alison Wiggins discloses the vital importance of letter-writing for Bess's ventures in politics, patronage, business, legal negotiation, news-gathering and domestic life.
