The Wars of the Roses, a brutal civil war that ravaged England from 1455 to 1485, was not just a man's world. Women played a pivotal role in the conflict, from the powerful queens who influenced their husbands' actions to the ordinary women who suffered the consequences of war.
In The Women of the Cousins' War, acclaimed historical novelist Jean Plaidy brings to life the stories of three extraordinary women who lived through this turbulent period: Margaret of Anjou, Elizabeth Woodville, and Anne Neville.
Margaret of Anjou: The She-Wolf of France
Margaret of Anjou was a strong-willed and ambitious woman who became Queen of England when she married Henry VI in 1445. She was a fierce supporter of her husband and the House of Lancaster, and she played a leading role in the early stages of the Wars of the Roses.
Margaret was a controversial figure, and she was often accused of being too domineering and ambitious. However, she was also a capable and intelligent woman who was fiercely loyal to her family. She was a formidable enemy, and her opponents feared her ruthlessness.
Elizabeth Woodville: The White Queen
Elizabeth Woodville was a beautiful and charming woman who became Queen of England when she married Edward IV in 1464. She was a member of the House of York, and her marriage to Edward helped to unite the two rival factions in the Wars of the Roses.
Elizabeth was a kind and compassionate woman who was beloved by her people. However, she was also a strong-willed and ambitious woman who was not afraid to speak her mind. She was a powerful influence on her husband, and she played a significant role in the political affairs of the kingdom.
Anne Neville: The Kingmaker's Daughter
Anne Neville was the daughter of Richard Neville, the Earl of Warwick. She was a beautiful and intelligent woman who was married to both Edward IV and Richard III. She was a pawn in the political games of her father and her husbands, but she eventually found love and happiness with Richard III.
Anne was a complex and fascinating woman who was caught up in the turmoil of the Wars of the Roses. She was a witness to some of the most important events in English history, and her story is a reminder of the resilience and strength of women in the face of adversity.
The Women of the Cousins' War is a gripping and unforgettable novel that tells the story of three remarkable women who lived through one of the most turbulent periods in English history. Jean Plaidy's vivid prose and meticulous research bring these women to life and give readers a glimpse into their world. This is a must-read for anyone interested in the Wars of the Roses or in the role of women in history.
