The Women of the Cousins' War

The Real White Queen And Her Rivals

About this book

A BRILLIANT BIOGRAPHICAL ANTHOLOGY FROM ONE OF THE WORLD'S FOREMOST HISTORICAL NOVELISTS. 

Beautifully illustrated with rare portraits, The Women of the Cousins' War provides an accurate account of Elizabeth Woodline, The White Queen, Margaret Beaufort, The Red Queen, and Jacquetta, Lady Rivers - the subjects of the first three novels in Philippa's beloved Cousins' War series.

In this exciting addition to the Philippa Gregory ouevre, Philippa writes revealingly about the differences between history and fiction and examines the gaps in the historical record with the help of the two leading historical experts in their field who helped Philippa to research the novels.
