Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book, set in the early 15th century, brings to life Jacqueline, the last sovereign Countess of Holland, Zeeland and Hainaut. Orphaned at sixteen, Jacqueline's life was a constant political struggle, with her various titles and marriages used by her male relatives to further their own ambitions. Jacqueline's story is entwined with that of the region and the era, shedding light on the medieval world's complex feudal system that was gradually beginning to give way to a world shaped by commerce and urban development.
