Stuart Spouses looks at the oft-overshadowed consorts of the Stuart monarchs, from 1406 to 1714. By focusing on these people and detailing their rises to matrimony, the trials and tribulations of their courtships, and the impact their unions and dissolutions had on the kingdoms of Scotland, England, Ireland, and Wales, one learns not only the history of these kingdoms but the true, sometimes soft, power behind the throne. AUTHOR: Heather R. Darsie lives with her loving family and her parrots in the US. She completed her education with a Juris Doctorate. Along with her Juris Doctorate, she has a Bachelor of Arts in German Languages and Literature. She formally studied Spanish and French during her time at university and is self-taught in Latin. She completed multiple graduate-level courses in Early Modern History and Medieval History, with her primary focus being the Holy Roman Empire under Charles V. She runs the website MaidensAndManuscripts.com. 20 colour illustrations
