"I really liked this one--Eleanor of Aquitaine is absolutely fascinating! This fictionalized story of her life (according to my research on her) was as historically accurate as it could be, and I loved Plaidy's presentation."
"What an incredible woman. Set during the reign of Henry II of England, Eleanor was the Duchess of Aquitaine (almost as important as the Kind himself at that time). Eleanor first married the King of France, divorced him and married the Duke of Normandy (Henry) who became King of England. This books recounts the struggle to expand the kingdoms of England and France, the way children were used to secure alliances through marriage, and the continual intrigue. Eleanor lived to be 80 years old and helped rule England and Aquitaine until her death."
