Acerca de este libro electrónico

From “an outstanding storyteller,” a historical novel about a Danish princess who became the Queen of Great Britain (Woman’s Weekly).
 
Anne of Holstein is perhaps the least-known Queen Consort in Britain’s history. But her marriage to James I saw her become key to the legacy of the Stuarts.
 
From her homeland of Denmark, Anne travelled to Scotland—a place she had heard tales about of ruthless and bloodthirsty people—and met her betrothed. A teenage Anne was infatuated with her match. They married and bore children, but as the Princess grew to womanhood in the turbulent court of Scotland, she was subject to the unpredictable behaviour of her husband. When Queen Elizabeth I died, James inherited the crown of England and was the first ruler to call himself ‘King of Great Britain’, and Anne the first queen.
 
The Danish Queen tells the story of a woman who crossed the sea and found love and power, but was fated to watch the heartbreaking demise of her children, all of whom were to be haunted by the tragic destiny of the Stuarts.
 
It is a dramatic and enlightening account of the early years and marriage of a queen whose place in history is little known, and is perfect for fans of Anne O’Brien, Elizabeth Chadwick and Alison Weir.
