Very good condition with only minor signs of external wear. Alison Weir born 8 July 1951 is a British writer of history books and latterly historical novels mostly in the form of biographies about British royalty. Her first published work 1989's Britain's Royal Families was a genealogical overview of the British royal family. She subsequently wrote biographies of Eleanor of Aquitaine Isabella of France Katherine Swynford and the Princes in the Tower. Other focuses have included Henry VIII of England and his wives and children Mary Boleyn Elizabeth I and Mary Queen of Scots. She has published historical overviews of the Wars of the Roses and royal weddings as well as historical fiction novels on Lady Jane Grey Elizabeth I and Eleanor of Aquitaine. Many of Weir's works deal with the Tudor period which she considers "the most dramatic period in our history with vivid strong personalities. The Tudor period is the first one for which we have a rich visual record with the growth of portraiture and detailed sources on the private lives of kings and queens. This was an age that witnessed a growth in diplomacy and the spread of the printed word." Wikipedia. hardcover
