Requests:  0 Summary:  "The story of lady-in-waiting Margaret Pole and her unique view of King Henry VIII's stratospheric rise to power in Tudor England. Regarded as yet another threat to the volatile King Henry VIII's claim to the throne, Margaret Pole, cousin to Elizabeth of York (known as the White Princess) and daughter of George, Duke of Clarence, is married off to a steady and kind Lancaster supporter--Sir Richard Pole. For his loyalty, Sir Richard is entrusted with the governorship of Wales, but Margaret's contented daily life is changed forever with the arrival of Arthur, the young Prince of Wales, and his beautiful bride, Katherine of Aragon. Margaret soon becomes a trusted advisor and friend to the honeymooning couple, hiding her own royal connections in service to the Tudors. After the sudden death of Prince Arthur, Katherine leaves for London a widow, and fulfills her deathbed promise to her husband by marrying his brother, Henry VIII. Margaret's world is turned upside down by the surprising summons to court, where she becomes the chief lady-in-waiting to Queen Katherine. But this charmed life of the wealthiest and "holiest" woman in England lasts only until the rise of Anne Boleyn, and the dramatic deterioration of the Tudor court. Margaret has to choose whether her allegiance is to the increasingly tyrannical king, or to her beloved queen; to the religion she loves or the theology which serves the new masters. Caught between the old world and the new, Margaret Pole has to find her own way as she carries the knowledge of an old curse on all the Tudors"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status Due Date   Aiea Public Library Adult Fiction Gregory   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Fiction Gregory   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Fiction Gregory   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Gregory   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Gregory   Missing Inventory   Add Copy to MyList CLOSED TEMPORARILY: Honokaa Public Library Adult Fiction Gregory Historical Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Fiction Gregory   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Fiction Gregory   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapaa Public Library Adult Fiction Gregory   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction GREGORY   Checked out 06/12/2024 Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
