Kenilworth (novel)

Kenilworth is a romance novel written by Walter Scott. First published on January 8, 1821, the novel tells the story of the secret, tragic marriage of Amy Robsart to Robert Dudley and Robsart's eventual death. Whilst much of the novel is a true telling of the events at Elizabethan court, the depiction of Robsart's death from a fall is a product of Scott's imagination.
