Loading... Eleanor of Aquitaine and the Four Kings (1950)by Amy Ruth Kelly
None. This is a good book. I well remember how I came to hear of this book. I was at the Seattle World's Fair in 1962 and there was a sort of computer-like way to learn of books on subjects of interest and I was told of this book by that device. Months later I found the book at our library and read it with appreciation. (  ) Schmerguls | Jun 8, 2013 |  This was a very informative biography of Eleanor of Aquitaine, who ruled in France and England during the 12th Century, thanks to two marriages. She also bore two kings of England, Richard-the-Lionhearted, and King John. I don't believe I've ever read the facts behind these two legendary kings, nor had I ever read anything of Eleanor. I appreciated the research that so obviously went into this book, and I also appreciated the readable style. This book has caused me to become more interested in the Middle Ages. ( ) bookwoman247 | Mar 5, 2012 | A true classic of biography of women (  ) carterchristian1 | Dec 21, 2011 | This biography cannot be surpassed, even by more recent scholarship or interpretations of the life and times of Eleanor of Aquitaine. Amy Ruth Kelly's vivid language and masterful style conjure up the 12th century so convincingly that you will never forget it. ( )1  Imprinted | Jun 17, 2011 | Best biography I've read so far about Eleanor and her relationship with her husbands and sons, and the impact she had on the medieval age.
