This lovely first printing hardcover is in near fine condition, with an immaculate blue cloth cover. The dust jacket is in very good shape. Jacquetta of Luxembourg, kinswoman to European royalty, married John, Duke of Bedford, and later defied convention by marrying for love. As a close friend of Queen Margaret of Anjou and mother to Elizabeth Woodville, she played a pivotal yet often overlooked role in the Wars of the Roses. With noble lineage and a reputation for magic, Jacquetta remains one of history’s most haunting and neglected heroines.
