Synopsis
During a time when Burgundy was so powerful that it almost became a nation separate from France, its duchess Isabel led negotiations with allies and navigated the treacherous world of palace intrigue and espionage., Isabel (1397-1471), third wife of Philip the Good Duke of Burgundy, played a powerful role in the court politics and foreign affairs of this small duchy until her machinations led to her banishment. Taylor's accessible narrative history sets Isabel's life and her struggles for personal and financial independence against the fascinating backdrop of civil war, family feuds and warfare, notably Burgundy's betrayal of Joan of Arc., This is the only biography available of Isabel of Burgundy (1397-1471) who, amid the shadowy intrigues and bloody politics of fifteenth-century court life, had the ambitiion and ingenuity to achieve prominence in a man's world., Portuguese princess Isabel married Philip the Good of Burgundy in 1429, a time when the powerful Duchy of Burgundy teetered on the brink of becoming a kingdom separate from France. From her marriage until her death in 1471, this remarkable woman rebelled against the social constraints of her time and played a major role in international negotiations on behalf of Burgundy; after mediating several crucial conferences, she sealed a series of trade agreements with England, her chosen ally, despite the pro-French sympathies of her husband and other members of his court. In Isabel of Burgundy, author Aline Taylor tells the dramatic story of Isabel's battle against the pro-French faction in Burgundy and its network of spies, her support of English monarch Edward IV during the Wars of the Roses, and her attempts to gain a crown for her adored son Charles. A true-life historical drama, Isabel of Burgundy is a story of pageantry and royal splendor, plots and counter-plots, betrayals, an uprising led by Joan of Arc, and devastating warfare. It is also the personal account of a woman, wife, and mother, and the tragedies she faced as she tried to keep her family together.

    Excellent seller. Package was delayed ( by bad weather) and then misplaced at PO( placed in wrong box #) but I contacted the seller and they responded quickly and I got my item today. This seller went the extra mile and I would highly recommend them and will shop here again. I also want to say the price for this complete hard to find item was way below most of the other listings. Condition was good as stated, and although I've only watched the first disc it's quality is good. Thank you!!

    The cd was well packed and arrived safely. Unfortunately, the disc I received wasn't the original cd. It had been replaced by a CD-R. I immediately alerted World of Books USA regarding the problem and an officer of the company responded within 24 hours. They have provided a full refund of the purchase. Great customer service and communication. The case was resolved to my satisfaction. Will continue to do business with World of Books USA. Thanks.

    Item arrived as described and was a fair value for price paid. It felt like it took forever to arrive, based on the listing info I wasn’t expecting this item to ship from outside of the US BUT based upon the shipping information it appears it had. So it took several weeks for this small, light item to arrive. Which seemed odd due to it being small and light and easy to package to ship, it was pretty annoying. When it did finally arrive it started to make more sense that it was shipped low priori
