Saint Margaret, Queen of the Scots Reviews

Saint Margaret, Queen of Scots: A Life in Perspective will prove to be an exceptionally valuable resource for those working both on St. Margaret and on early medieval queeuship and female sainthood more generally. Keene's work will also surely pave the way for even more much-needed scholarship on 'the other queen of Scots' ... .
