Queen of Misfortune

Produktbeschreibung

'Ah!' said the fortune teller, 'the tennis ball of fortune! A wife yet not a mother. Always near a throne, yet doomed not to ascend it. The daughter of Kings - yet much more truly the daughter of misfortune.

'I see before you restoration to the Country and Palace of your fathers. Again the banners of royalty wave over you, and you advance a step nearer to a crown…'

She is Marie Thérèse, daughter of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, and this is her story.

Autorenporträt

Amanda Benton's childhood passion was always history. She studied law and worked in finance for many years but in this, her first book of biography, she returns to the subject which inspired her on a childhood visit to the forbidding Conciergerie prison in Paris: French history.
