Sisters of Richard III: The Plantagenet Daughters of York Sarah J Hodder

This book is the narrative of three women of York, sisters to not one, but two kings ofEngland. Anne, Elizabeth and Margaret Plantagenet were the daughters of Richard,Duke of York and his wife, Cecily Neville, and therefore sisters to Edward IV andRichard III. These women watched from the sidelines as their father challengedEnglands anointed king and lost his life, as their brothers fought together for thethrone of England and then amongst themselves and as the Plantagenet dynastyfell, making way for the reign of the Tudors. But they were not just bystanders; theyhad their own stories to tell. Anne of York was married to the Lancastrian Duke ofExeter who sided against her father and brother, before finding later happiness,albeit briefly, with her second husband. Elizabeth of York married John de la Pole,Duke of Suffolk and became the mother of eleven children who would becomethorns in the side of the Tudor kings and Margaret of York became Duchess ofBurgundy, a hugely influential woman in her adopted kingdom although she neverstopped supporting her family back in England. Between them, they witnessed andcontributed to one of the most turbulent times in English history yet they havenaturally been overshadowed by their more famous brothers. This is their story.
