[b]Rating[/b]: 5 out of 5 stars This is an amazing book detailing regicide, which, frankly, I would have thought would be at a higher rate at 22%. I would actually love a further breakdown more by each century. I think the numbers would be crazy high for some of them. I learned so much about the different royals in this book. I definitely don't read up on royal history all the time (although I occasionally do follow the Megan and Kate drama). So there was tons here I had never learned about. Definitely would recommend!

[b]Rating[/b]: 5 out of 5 stars Despite watching movies and reading a light amount about Marie Antoinette, I’ve always wanted to learn more and this book was amazing. It covered her entire life and everything was so well explained. This is not just a bland history, but a vivid and colorful literary education on who she was, what she did, and how she met the end that she did. I truly enjoyed this book and have retained so much from it.

From Edward I, the 'Hammer of the Scots' to William Wallace and Robert I (aka 'the Bruce'), these figures loom large in history. But what about the women who lived during those turbulent times? Often forgotten and overlooked, Beth Reid has tried to address that imbalance and bring to the forefront some of the characters who took part. >From people such as Isabella MacDuff who crowned Robert the Bruce, to Robert's daughter Marjorie, from whom all the later Kings of Scotland - and after 1603 England - are descended, to Agnes Randolph, Countess of Dunbar and March who defended her home against a siege from the English, this book celebrates these heroic women and restores them to their rightful places, front and..
