STUART, NANCY RUBIN

"Rubin succeeds admirably in recounting the story of Spain's greatest queen and the impact of her reign on her country and the world... a first rate exposition." --Kirkus
"An excellent, well-developed picture of the complex, often contradictory forces of the European scene from which Columbus sailed." --Washington Times
"Classic... will make permanent literary history by dispelling many schoolroom myths." --Tulsa World
