Nathen don't forget about the exhilarating and deliciously detailed romps between the enigmatic Princes of Wales and English Kings: John, Henry III, Edward Longshanks, and Edward II ( of Caernarfon)
Come for the dish on Owen Tudor and Catherine of Valois, stay for all the captivating details of the exciting Welsh Princes and their honorable seneschal's!!
Congratulations Nathen, very well deserved. 14 years is a lot of hard work and it looks great. I hope you have solved one question I have, how did Katharine de Valois and Owen Tudor meet. I know he worked in or connected to her household and there must have been something about him to sweep a dowager Queen of her feet. I think he must have been rather dashing and I think their story was rather romantic as they knew that he risked prison due to an Act of Parliament which forbade ex Queens marrying during a minority without the consent of the royal Council. I find it amazing that they kept their marriage secret for what, eight years or so until Katharine died in 1439? I am not certain how many children they had but it was probably four, I think. That they then went on to be recognised by Henry vi as his true half brothers and ennobled makes their story even more impressive.
I am really looking forward to the Tudor family saga from it's inception. Much of this will be new history I know little about although I have visited their spot on Anglesey. Hoping to pop to Pembrokeshire in September. Anyway, good luck with all the signings. Congratulations yet again.
Unfortunately. I live in the Channel Islands so I can't attend any of your book launches. However I woulsd dearly love to buy a book so can you tell me how I can do that. Many thanks and congratulations on completing this volume .
Well done! Sorry I can’t come to the events but I’ll be there in spirit. Once again can’t wait to read it
Well done Nathen. Congratulations looking forward to seeing you in Southwark
