Tudor Women: Queens and CommonersAtheneum, 1979 - 182 páginas "In this book the women of the royal family are the central characters; the royal women set the style and between them they provide a dazzling variety of personalities as well as illustrating almost every aspect of life as it affected women in Tudor England. We know what they ate, how they dressed, the books they read and the letters they wrote. Even the greatest of them suffered the universal legal and physiological disabilities of womanhood - some survived them, some triumphed over them and some went under."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
