THE EMPRESS MATILDA: QUEEN CONSORT, QUEEN MOTHER AND LADY OF THE ENGLISH
Published by Blackwell. 1st thus. 1993
Slightly better than very good condition. Grandaughter of William the Conqueror and of King Malcolm of the Scots, and daughter of Henry I, Matilda fought for the throne of England for nine years and was denied it largely because she was a woman. In valour and determination, Matilday may be compared with Boudicca or with Elizabeth I. An account of her extraordinary, action-packed life. Green cardwraps. A few b/w photos.
Spine lightly faded. Rear cover lightly scuffed. Contents clean.
