<p><b>''A good story, embracing character, emotion and drama... refreshing.'' <i>THE TIMES</i></b><br><br><b>''A splendidly sympathetic and sparky portrait</b>... <b>Wittily written and rich in detail'' Miranda Seymour</b><br><br><b>Catherine of Braganza - Boring? Plain? Ineffectual? Think again.</b><br><br>Charles II''s wife was a trouser-wearing tastemaker who introduced tea drinking, popularised card games and championed baroque fashion and art. Her salon culture was infamous for its parties, theatricals and frequent trips to the pub. A Catholic queen in a strictly Anglican country, she was the diplomatic bridge between an unstable Britain and the European mainland, and carefully navigated the treacherous political landscape of Restoration England.<br><br>In this illuminating portrait historian Sophie Shorland brings Catherine vividly to life for the first time, revealing a woman who defied the limitations imposed upon her to have a profound impact on the world around her.<br><br><b>Previously published as <i>The Lost Queen</i>.</b></p>
