Queens of England
By Norah Lofts.
Description
Coverage begins with Matilda, daughter of the count (not "earl") of Flanders, wife of William of Normandy, and continues to Elizabeth II, who celebrated her Silver Jubilee in 1977. Because all the forty-five subjects get nearly equal time, this volume is most useful for the lesser-known, such as Adeliza of Normandy (Henry I's second wife), Anne of Bohemia (queen of Richard II), Catherine of Braganza (Charles II), and Adelaide of Saxe-Meiningen (William IV). - from Amzon
