Review: A most remarkable book--well worth reading. - This was a most spectacular book. It gave me a perspective of the historical fiction/novel genre that I never had before. It proved a very valuable insight into these 3 women as well as the 3 authors and their processes. I would actually have liked to have read this first before I read all of the other Philippa Gregory books on my ancestors--these wonderful, powerful, insightful but forgotten women of the Cousins' War. The entire series of Philippa Gregory on all of the women of the era--that war--not just the Duchess, the Queen and the King's Mother are books that I will treasure forever and pass down to my children so that they may have a better understanding of their roots as well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The introduction is better than the book itself
*by B***Y on September 24, 2011*

The book was all right. The three women are well defined, or at least as well defined as our current levels of research allow. All three biographies are very readable, although they do not really shed any more light on the women than other more comprehensive biographies I have read. The real treat of this book was in Philippa Gregory's introduction. Her definition of historical fiction was spot on, and I agree completely with her theory that it is just as viable a form of writing as any other, provided the author does their research and incorporates the facts as seamlessly as possible in with their imaginings. Considering that history changes, or at least our viewpoint of it does, every time the Vatican opens its files or a new treasure trove of material is discovered, is well researched historical fiction really that much different from actual history? Nonfiction history pieces the tale together from known records, but it is still piecing. Historical fiction, if the author knows the subject, does the same thing, but with greater intimate detail and assumptions. So read the book. But also read the introductory essays from Ms Gregory. They are worth the purchase of the book on their own merit.
