Double-weighted statement
Burghley was the fruit of four years’ research and writing. It was the first book-length study of William Cecil’s career in half a century and sought to look at his political career in the light of new research and in the contexts of his social, religious and domestic world. It was a major archival undertaking, grounded in thousands of Burghley’s papers held in the National Archives, the British Library, the Folger Shakespeare Library and the Henry E. Huntington Library, as well as smaller collections. The book offers a fundamental reappraisal of the longest political career of the Tudor century.
