Queen Elizabeth I often used the summer months to embark on tours - or 'progresses' - of England, when she and her courtiers visited towns, cities, universities, and her subjects. This annotated collection of texts relating to the progresses includes accounts of dramatic performances, orations, and poems, and a wealth of supplementary material.
