Another Jean Plaidy re-issue! Woo Hoo!!!
The Three Crowns: The Story of William and Mary
Release Date: November 2, 2010
SYNOPSIS: Born leader and brilliant soldier, William of Orange thought the English court a hotbed of vice and conspiracy -- Charles II with his mistresses, the Dukes of Monmouth and York ambitious for the throne.
William wanted no reluctant bride, but the three crowns of England, Scotland and Ireland were worth a little sacrifice. He would marry the fifteen-year-old Mary, bring her back to Holland, and teach her who was master.
All England rejoiced. Only Mary wept. She knew married people were rarely happy.
