Catherine of Aragon by Amy Licence

Catherine of Aragon by Amy Licence

A stunning new full-length biography of Queen Catherine of Aragon, Henry VIII's wife of over twenty years. The first ever written by a female historian and to concentrate on Catherine as a Tudor woman, rather than a pawn of in the dynastic power plays of men.

‘A thorough, thought-provoking, and compulsively readable biography of Henry VIII’s first queenFans of the Tudor era will love it. Amy Licence offers a convincing hypothesis on the contentious mystery of Catherine’s first wedding night and a beautiful portrait of a tenacious, courageous, intelligent but often misguided woman. This is a gem of a royal biography from an expert in the field.’ -- Gareth Russell Author of Young and Damned and Fair: The Life and Tragedy of Catherine Howard at the Court of King Henry VIII
