Historian Milton Waldman believes that historians have tended to neglect or forget Robert Dudley’s vital role in English history. He believes that too much romantic limelight has been thrown on the young man who succeeded Dudley as the Queen’s “most overwritten favorite”—Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex. Elizabeth and Leicester reads like a prim rebuke to Lytton Strachey’s witty, popular Elizabeth and Essex.
