Rezensionen
The prologue is indicative of the book as a whole, which combines meticulously researched history and contemporary voices with narrative flair . . . The Guy/Fox approach is fresh partly because they are a married couple writing about a marriage, but more because they reframe the story in the context of continental European politics, in contrast to the parochial English exceptionalism that pervades writing about this era. The authors have uncovered a fair bit of new material in their scouring of the archives and libraries of Europe, the most interesting relating to Anne's teenage years on the Continent
