"Eleanor of Aquitaine and the High Middle Ages" by Nancy Plain explores the life of one of history's most formidable women. Born into wealth and power, Eleanor became the queen consort of both France and England, playing a crucial role in the politics of the 12th century. The narrative delves into her marriages, her influence over her sons—including Richard the Lionheart and King John—and her efforts to preserve her legacy amidst the upheaval of war and intrigue. With a rich blend of historical detail and vibrant storytelling, Plain captures Eleanor’s strength, ambition, and the significant impact she had on her era.
