This is the first book in a 6 part series by one of great Tudor historical writers, Alison Weir. The first book covers Henry VIII's first wife and true wife, Katherine of Aragon. It begins with the princess landing in England to marry the heir, Prince Arthur. It ends with her death. The story covers Katherine's tumultuous and difficult life as she is tossed aside for Anne Boleyn. I can't wait to read all the books in the series and see if Weir's interpretation of this fascinating period in history matches my own.
