Uncrowned Queen: The Fateful Life of Margaret Beaufort, Tudor Matriarch by Nicola Tallis

4.0

I love reading about the English and British royals, especially in the Wars of the Roses, and I’ve read lots about Margaret Beaufort—almost always as a supporting character. It was fascinating to see her get her own story and time in the spotlight. Like many historical biographies, when so many personages are interrelated and share similar or identical first names, it can be hard to keep track of the action (especially when you add in noble titles that change over time)! That being said, it was engaging and interesting, but not as dynamically written as I would have liked.
