# The White Queen: Cousins' War 1

Elizabeth Woodville, a widow of no royal blood, catches the eye of a young king and finds herself queen of England during the Wars of the Roses. Philippa Gregory follows her as she learns to hold her place at a court of shifting loyalties, fighting for her family while the houses of York and Lancaster turn on one another. The story is told from Elizabeth's side, through a clever and ambitious woman making her way in a world run by men.

Her two sons become the Princes in the Tower, whose fate has never been settled. The publisher notes that Gregory brings meticulous research and a storyteller's craft to this unsolved mystery. Readers who enjoy history told from the inside, with strong women at its centre, will find this a absorbing read.
