Requests:  0 Summary:  Poisoner, despot, necromancer--the dark legend of Catherine de Medici is centuries old. In this critically hailed biography, Leonie Frieda reclaims the story of this unjustly maligned queen to reveal a skilled ruler battling extraordinary political and personal odds--from a troubled childhood in Florence to her marriage to Henry, son of King Francis I of France; from her transformation of French culture to her fight to protect her throne and her sons' birthright. Based on thousands of private letters, it is a remarkable account of one of the most influential women ever to wear a crown.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 944.02809 Catherine de Medicis Fr Checked In Add Copy to MyList
