The story of Joanna - princess, pioneer, captive and queen - and of the wider twelfth-century world that she inhabited.
Book Synopsis
Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine are two of the most recognizable figures of the Middle Ages, and almost certainly the best-known couple. The lives of their sons have been examined in detail many times, but their daughters are barely known despite the influence they exerted on the world around them. Joanna, the youngest daughter, led an extraordinary life full of travel, adventure, danger and controversy. Her story is told here in full for the first time.
