Synopsis
""Queen Margot: Wife Of Henry Of Navarre"" by H. Noel Williams is a historical biography that tells the story of Marguerite de Valois, the daughter of Catherine de' Medici and King Henry II of France, who was married off to Henry of Navarre in a political alliance. The book follows Margot's life as she navigates the dangerous political landscape of 16th century France, including the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre, which she survived. The author explores Margot's complex relationships with her family, her husband, and her lovers, as well as her role in the religious and political conflicts of the time. Through meticulous research and vivid storytelling, ""Queen Margot"" offers a fascinating portrait of a woman who defied gender norms and wielded power in a male-dominated world.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1907 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
