520    "New York Times bestselling author Alison Weir explores 
       the life of Henry VIII's mother, Elizabeth, the first 
       queen of the Tudor dynasty, in this stunning historical 
       novel. Elizabeth of York is the oldest daughter of King 
       Edward IV. Flame-haired, beautiful, and sweet-natured, she
       is adored by her family; yet her life is suddenly 
       disrupted when her beloved father dies in the prime of 
       life. Her uncle, the notorious Richard III, takes 
       advantage of King Edward's death to grab the throne and 
       imprison Elizabeth's two younger brothers, the rightful 
       royal heirs. Forever afterwards known as the princes in 
       the tower, the boys are never seen again. On the heels of 
       this tragedy, Elizabeth is subjected to Richard's 
       overtures to make her his wife, further legitimizing his 
       claim to the throne. King Richard has murdered her 
       brothers, yet she is obliged to accept his proposal. As if
       in a fairy tale, Elizabeth is saved by Henry Tudor, who 
       challenges Richard and kills him in the legendary Battle 
       of Bosworth Field. In recognition of his victory, Henry 
       becomes king and asks Elizabeth to be his wife, the first 
       queen of the Tudor line. The marriage is happy and 
       fruitful, not only uniting the warring houses of Lancaster
       and York-the red and white roses-but resulting in four 
       surviving children, one of whom, Henry VIII, will rule the
       country for the next thirty-six years. As in her popular 
       Six Tudor Queens series, Alison Weir captures the 
       personality of one of Britain's most important monarchs, 
       conveying Elizabeth of York's dramatic life in a novel 
       that is all the richer because of its firm basis in 
       history"--|cProvided by publisher.
