The acclaimed author of <I>A Rose for the Crown</i> takes us between the lines of history and into her heart.</b><P><P>It is 1461: Edward, son of Richard of York, ascends to the throne, and his willful sister, Margaret, immediately becomes a pawn in European politics as Edward negotiates her marriage. The young Margaret falls deeply in love with Anthony Woodville, the married brother of Edward's queen, Elizabeth. But Edward has arranged for his sister to wed Charles, son of the Duke of Burgundy, and soon Margaret is setting sail for her new life. Her official escort: Anthony Woodville.<P><P>Margaret of York eventually commanded the respect and admiration of much of Europe, but it appears to history that she had no emotional intimate. Anne Easter Smith's rare gift for storytelling and her extensive research reveal the love that burned at the center of Margaret's life, adding a new dimension to the story of one of the fifteenth century's most powerful women.<P><P> 2019577 12 2 2008 Daughter of York: A Novel total:267|5:47|4:108|3:89|2:15|1:8| 267 972 483 54 4 1 false false Fri Feb 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Tue Mar 18 23:38:05 -0700 2008 Wed Apr 02 12:55:56 -0700 2008
