Más información sobre el libro

In Catherine, the Queen, Mary M. Luke bring to vivid, dimensional life the deeply moving drama of Catherine, the woman--the Spanish princess who lived to wed two English princes, to hear her marriage to Henry VIII proclaimed an offense to God, and who survived pregnancy after pregnancy without producing the son that would have secured her place in Henry's heart and at his court. This vibrant, richly detailed biography chronicles the life of woman of enormous stature, majesty, and moral integrity, who won and held the allegiance of the English people--even when she could not hold their King.
