About This Book

The biography reconstructs the life of Henry VII's second daughter from sparse records, following her childhood, shifting diplomatic betrothals and a politically arranged marriage to the French king, then a secret, passionate marriage to Charles Brandon that produced scandal, confession, and royal negotiations. Drawing on newly read documents and portraits, the account balances ceremonial court detail with intimate personal moments, tracing the political consequences of private choices and the later return to England, while explaining how archival fragments have been reinterpreted to reveal character amid ceremony.
