Here at Giants of History, we produce a weekly biographical podcast that explores history’s most fascinating figures from cradle to grave. In each series, we strive to highlight the best stories and most monumental moments in each subject’s respective life. Our goals are to entertain our listeners, as well as provide inspiration through education.
Eyewitness accounts are the best way to explore history. In this episode, we explore one of the most famous executions in history through the eyes of those that were in the room on that day, February 8th 1587...the day that the life of Mary, Queen of Scots came to an end.
