Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine accomplished feats that most women in her day would not have dreamed of. Married to Louis, King of France, she divorced him to marry Henry Plantagenet, eventually becoming Queen of England. Venturing off on crusades, working in the government systems of both countries she ruled, and attempting to save her kingdoms through alliances made with her children, Eleanor lived a wide, varied, and fascinating life during the peak of the Middle Ages. 183 pages, indexed, softcover.
