I listened to this in my car this summer on my trip to and from Cape Cod. It was really fascinating! And I was surprised by how “randy” a life Eleanor lived, first as the wife of King Louis VII of France and then as the wife of King Henry II of England. She had two daughters with King Louis and then had five sons and three more daughters with King Henry. She was an important advisor to both her husbands. The political intrigue of the time was really interesting to learn. Being so enamored of all things English, and wanting to learn even more about the key players leading up to King Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth I, I found this story truly captivating!
