The White Queen is a novel written by Russell Montague Garnier and first published in 1899. It is a historical romance set during the Wars of the Roses in England, and follows the story of Elizabeth Woodville, a commoner who becomes the queen of England after marrying King Edward IV. The novel is divided into three parts, each depicting a different phase of Elizabeth's life. The first part explores her early years as a widow with two young sons, struggling to make ends meet. She meets Edward IV and captures his heart, despite his already being married. The second part follows Elizabeth's rise to power as queen, as she navigates the treacherous political landscape of the court and tries to maintain her position amidst the rival factions vying for control of the throne. The third and final part of the novel focuses on the downfall of the York dynasty and Elizabeth's eventual defeat at the hands of the Tudors. It also delves into the mystery surrounding the disappearance of the princes in the Tower, which has been a subject of much speculation and debate over the years. Throughout the novel, Garnier weaves a compelling tale of love, betrayal, and political intrigue, set against the backdrop of one of the most tumultuous periods in English history. The White Queen is a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers with its vivid portrayal of a strong and determined woman who defied the odds to become one of the most powerful queens in English history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
