About this title

Synopsis:

Spence specializes in researching the Clifford family. Here he offers a full-scale biography of one of the most renowned noblewomen of the Stuart era. He draws on previously unknown or neglected sources to illuminate her childhood in the royal court, her association with leading figures during her first marriage, her tempestuous second marriage, and her concern for her daughters. He also discusses household economy, estate policies, her achievements as family historian, and her feuding with cousins. Distributed in the US by Books International.
