Discover the compelling tale of Lady Jane Grey, the English noblewoman who, despite being a great-granddaughter of Henry VII, reigned as Queen for just nine days. As the life of Edward VI, her cousin, hung in the balance, he named her his successor, bypassing his own half-sisters, Mary and Elizabeth. This decision led to Janes conviction for treason and her subsequent imprisonment in the Tower of London. Often portrayed as one of the most romantic figures in royal history, this podcast offers a comprehensive biography of the Nine Day Queen. - Summary by Lynne Thompson
