It is the extraordinary tale of an exceptional woman Katherine Swynford who became first the mistress and later the wife of John of Gaunt Duke of Lancaster.Katherine Swynford’s charismatic lover was one of the most powerful princes of the 14th century the effective ruler of England behind the throne of his father Edward III in his declining years and during the minority of his nephew Richard ll. Katherine herself was enigmatic and intriguing renowned for her beauty and regarded by some as dangerous. Her existence was played out against the backdrop of court life at the height of the age of chivalry and she knew most of the great figures of the time — including her brother-in-law Geoffrey Chaucer. She lived through much of the Hundred Years War the Black Death and the Peasants’ Revolt. She knew loss adversity and heartbreak and she survived them all triumphantly. Although Katherine’s story provides unique insights into the life of a medieval woman she was far from typical in that age. She was an important person in her own right a woman who had remarkable opportunities made her own choices flouted convention and took control of her own destiny — even of her own public image. Weir brilliantly retrieves Katherine Swynford from the footnotes of history and gives her life and breath again. Perhaps the most dynastically important woman within the English monarchy she was the mother of the Beauforts and through them the ancestress of the Yorkist kings the Tudors the Stuarts and every other sovereign since — a legacy that has shaped the history of Britain.</p> Jonathan Cape hardcover‎

Her marriage to the heir to England’s throne was designed to heal old political wounds between the two countries and in the years that followed she would become an important figure a determined and clever woman whose influence would come to last centuries. But Queen Isabella’s political machinations led generations of historians to malign her earning her a reputation as a ruthless schemer and an odious nickname “the She-Wolf of France.â€Now the acclaimed author of Eleanor of Aquitaine Alison Weir reexamines the life of Isabella of England history’s other notorious and charismatic medieval queen. Praised for her fair looks the newly wed Isabella was denied the attentions of Edward II a weak sexually ambiguous monarch with scant taste for his royal duties. As their marriage progressed Isabella was neglected by her dissolute husband and slighted by his favored male courtiers. Humiliated and deprived of her income her children and her liberty Isabella escaped to France where she entered into a passionate affair with Edward II’s mortal enemy Roger Mortimer. Together Isabella and Mortimer led the only successful invasion of English soil since the Norman Conquest of 1066 deposing Edward and ruling in his stead as co-regents for Isabella’s young son Edward III. Fate however was soon to catch up with Isabella and her lover. Many mysteries and legends have been woven around Isabella’s story. She was long condemned as an accessory to Edward II’s brutal murder in 1327 but recent research has cast doubt on whether that murder even took place.Isabella’s reputation then rests largely on the prejudices of monkish chroniclers and prudish Victorian scholars. Here Alison Weir gives a startling groundbreaking new perspective on Isabella in this first full biography in more than 150 years. In a work of extraordinary original research Weir effectively strips away centuries of propaganda legend and romantic myth and reveals a truly remarkable woman who had a profound influence upon the age in which she lived and the history of western Europe.Engaging vibrant alive with breathtaking detail and unforgettable characters Queen Isabella is biographical history at its finest.</p> Ballantine Books hardcover‎
