A Tudor Rebel: The lively and compelling story of the adventurous Countess of Lennox

Autor Carol McGrath
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 iun 2027
A poet, a lover, and a royal scandal...

Margaret Douglas is a close confidante of Princess Mary, and at court with Anne Boleyn where she joins a collective, writing romantic verse for 'The Devonshire Manuscript'. There, she also falls deeply in love with the dashing young Thomas Howard, a fellow poet. In 1535, an engagement takes place in secret.

When Anne is executed, and Henry discovers the contract, he is furious. With no son, he has planned for his adored niece Margaret to be next in line to the throne. Howard is placed in the Tower, accused of treason, and Margaret banished to Syon Abbey. It is only when Howard dies that Margaret is released and pardoned.

In time, Margaret marries again, and bears eight children. But it is her betrothal to Thomas Howard that sets her apart, her poems and letters of love lasting long after her own, adventurous and colourful life has ended.
