Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, some slight yellowing to back jacket and inside flaps, not price clipped (£2.50), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy…for its age. 303pp. Isabella of Spain was a great woman, a great Queen. 'Crown of Aloes' is presented as a personal chronicle. Within the framework of known fact and detail drawn from hitherto unexploited contemporary Spanish sources, a novelist's imagination and understanding have provided motives, thoughts, and private conversations, helping to build up the fascinating character Isabella must have been. Her fortunes were varied indeed: she knew acute poverty, faced anxiety and danger with high courage, gave much, suffered much, lived to the full. At the end she was mainly aware of her failures. It was left to others to realise how spectacular her successes had been. Norah Lofts, nee Norah Ethel Robinson, (1904-83), was a bestselling British author. She also wrote under the pen names Peter Curtis and Juliet Astley. She wrote more than fifty books, mostly historical fiction, but she also wrote some mysteries and non fiction and short stories. Many of her novels, including her 'Suffolk Trilogy', follow the history of specific houses and their residents over several generations. Jacket by Biro (illustrator).
