Queen from Provence Plaidy Jean
Marguerite, eldest daughter of the Count of Provence, had married a king of France - and now her sister Eleanor is determined to make just as grand a match. A good and generous husband but a weak king, he rules a nation that still remembers his cruel and foolish father, King John. Good fortune and wily cunning bring her Henry of England.
