New book on the Grey sisters
Jul 15 2008, 2:19 PM EDT | Post edited: Jul 15 2008, 2:19 PM EDT
Author Leanda de Lisle, who wrote "After Elizabeth", is coming out with a new history, a biography of the Grey sisters: Jane, Catherine, and Mary, entitled "The Sisters Who Would be Queen". It's due for release in the U.K. on September 1, 2008, perhaps later release in the U.S.?
Amazon U.K. is already taking pre-orders, which you can order together with David Starkey's much anticipated "Henry VIII: Virtuous Prince" for a discounted price. Do you find this valuable?

Thank you Boudica! I can't wait to read it. I've been trying to find some good books about the Grey's but I haven't had very much luck. Do you find this valuable?

I have bought the book in Australia and so far I find it enjoying. Can't wait to finish. Do you find this valuable?
