Queen Isabella: Treachery, Adultery, and Murder in Medieval England

BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Alison Weir'sÂ Mary Boleyn.

In this vibrant biography, acclaimed author Alison Weir reexamines the life of Isabella of England, one of historyâ€™s most notorious and charismatic queens. Isabella arrived in London in 1308, the spirited twelve-year-old daughter of King Philip IV of France. Her marriage to the heir to Englandâ€™s throne was designed to heal old political wounds between the two countries, and in the years that followed she became an important figure, a determined and clever woman whose influence would come to last centuries. Many myths and legends have been woven around Isabellaâ€™s story, but in this first full biography in more than 150 years, Alison Weir gives a groundbreaking new perspective.
