Publisher's Summary
Elizabeth of York would have ruled England, but for the fact that she was a woman. One of the key figures of the Wars of the Roses, daughter of Edward IV and Elizabeth Woodville, she married Henry Tudor to bring peace to a war-torn England.
In Elizabeth of York: The First Tudor Queen, Alison Weir builds a portrait of this beloved queen, placing her in the context of the magnificent, ceremonious, often brutal world she inhabited.
Critic Reviews
Praise for the author:
"Weir provides immense satisfaction. She writes in a pacy, vivid style, engaging the heart as well as the mind." (Independent)
"Staggeringly useful...combines solid information with tantalising appetisers." (Mail on Sunday on Britain's Royal Families)

great book let down by audio
Quality writing by Weir as always. the narrator in her normal voice is great but the audio book is disappointing to me by the weird accents affected by the narrator. for example, quoting English historical figures or chroniclers would give them odd italian/spanish/French/gypsy foretune teller accents in dark foreboding deep voices. overall I enjoyed Weir's view but could only listen in short bursts due to the above.
