The Baker's Daughter, Volume 2 Bonny G Smith

The Baker's Daughter The second book of the Tudor ChroniclesVolume 2 of 2(Book Two:1533-1558) Sequel to The Nymph from HeavenThe Baker's Daughter is the story of Queen Mary Tudor, Henry VIII and Katharine of Aragon's unfortunate daughter. How did a sweet, beautiful princess, the apple of her father's eye from birth, become the fearsome tyrant known as Bloody Mary? Mary's tragic tale is told with an objectivity, sympathy and understanding that is reflected in the title of the book; the discontent of the English people with Mary's proposed match with the Spaniard, King Philip of Spain, was cruelly expressed in a broadsheet circulating London at the time of Mary's ill-fated marriage: "The baker's daughter, in her russet gown; better than Queen Mary without her crown."
