Dubbed the "Black Queen" of France, Catherine de' Medici came from one of the most powerful families in 15th-century Europe and, marrying into the French Royal Court, led an evocative and precarious life. This history brings to life the woman who fought to keep her children in power but ended up blackening their names instead. |

But was she really that bad?Gorgeous illustrations and an intelligent, evocative story bring to life a real dastardly dame who fought to keep her children in power, but ended up blackening their names instead. |
