Book Synopsis Isabella of Castile by : Giles Tremlett
Download or read book Isabella of Castile written by Giles Tremlett and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major biography of the queen who transformed Spain into a principal global power, and sponsored the voyage that would open the New World. In 1474, when Castile was the largest, strongest, and most populous kingdom in Hispania (present day Spain and Portugal), a twenty-three-year-old woman named Isabella ascended the throne. At a time when successful queens regnant were few and far between, Isabella faced not only the considerable challenge of being a young, female ruler in an overwhelmingly male-dominated world, but also of reforming a major European kingdom riddled with crime, debt, corruption, and religious factionism. Her marriage to Ferdinand of Aragon united two kingdoms, a royal partnership in which Isabella more than held her own. Their pivotal reign was long and transformative, uniting Spain and setting the stage for its golden era of global dominance. Acclaimed historian Giles Tremlett chronicles the life of Isabella of Castile as she led her country out of the murky Middle Ages and harnessed the newest ideas and tools of the early Renaissance to turn her ill-disciplined, quarrelsome nation into a sharper, truly modern state with a powerful, clear-minded, and ambitious monarch at its center. With authority and insight he relates the story of this legendary, if controversial, first initiate in a small club of great European queens that includes Elizabeth I of England, Russia's Catherine the Great, and Britain's Queen Victoria.

Book Synopsis The Spanish Queen by : Carolly Erickson
Download or read book The Spanish Queen written by Carolly Erickson and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of The Last Wife of Henry VIII comes a powerful and moving novel about Catherine of Aragon, Henry VIII's first wife and mother of Mary I When young Catherine of Aragon, proud daughter of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella, is sent to England to marry the weak Prince Arthur, she is unprepared for all that awaits her: early widowhood, the challenge of warfare with the invading Scots, and the ultimately futile attempt to provide the realm with a prince to secure the succession. She marries Arthur's energetic, athletic brother Henry, only to encounter fresh obstacles, chief among them Henry's infatuation with the alluring but wayward Anne Boleyn. In The Spanish Queen, bestselling novelist Carolly Erickson allows the strong-willed, redoubtable Queen Catherine to tell her own story—a tale that carries her from the scented gardens of Grenada to the craggy mountains of Wales to the conflict-ridden Tudor court. Surrounded by strong partisans among the English, and with the might of Spanish and imperial arms to defend her, Catherine soldiers on, until her union with King Henry is severed and she finds herself discarded—and tempted to take the most daring step of her life. Carolly Erickson's historical entertainments continue to succeed in creating a unique blend of historical authenticity and page-turning drama.

Book Synopsis Queen Isabella and the Unification of Spain by : Nancy Whitelaw
Download or read book Queen Isabella and the Unification of Spain written by Nancy Whitelaw and published by Morgan Reynolds Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Queen Isabella is most famous for funding the voyages of Christopher Columbus, which opened up the Western Hemisphere for European settlement, she and her husband Ferdinand of Aragon focused most of their reign on the daunting task of uniting Spain under one government. Born into the ruling family of Castile, Isabella lost her parents at a young age and was raised by her unstable and unpopular half-brother, King Enrique IV. When Enrique, on his deathbed, refused to name an heir, twenty-three-year old Isabella seized the throne. It took Isabella and Ferdinand five years of war to consolidate control in Castile. Next, they turned to the long and bloody process of driving the last of the Moors from Spain and unifying most of the Iberian Peninsula. Their commitment to their faith, and to removing all non-Christians from their kingdom, earned the Catholic Monarchs, as they were called, the support of the Catholic Church, but also led to the infamous Spanish Inquisition and to the violent expulsion of all Muslims and Jews from the kingdom. Queen Isabella and the Unification of Spain introduces readers to this intriguing and controversial ruler, and to this fascinating period in European history. Book jacket.
