Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. David Higdon Ilustrador. The first-ever biography of Portugal's controversial Queen Maria Pia, wife of King Luis, mother of assassinated King Carlos. Using previously unused sources, as well as the famed Queen's correspondence, the author managed to reconstruct the life of a strong woman who had a terribly difficult life in a kingdom where she arrived as a teen bride. A Savoy by birth, Maria Pia dedicated her life to the needs of her adopted country, Portugal. 2 LB.

Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. Arturo Beeche Ilustrador. This bookâ s concept began with our frustration over the lack of English language sources available on the six beautiful Nassau sisters of Luxembourg, their descendants and the families they married into. We, however, wanted to know more. Thus, we braved our way through whatever foreign language materials we could find, and as we learned more about the princessesâ lives our interest grew to include the account of their parentsâ courtship and eventual marriage, a union which is one of the more touching but tragic of historyâ s untold royal love stories. Nor would the narrative of the sistersâ lives be complete without an explanation of how their grandfather came to inherit the Luxembourg throne. We hope you enjoy our effortâ ¦â Sabrina and Kassandra Pollock. Hardbound, glossy print, 240 pages, 405 rare images of the grand ducal family and other related royal and princely families. 3 LB.
