520 When young Catherine of Aragon, proud daughter of King
Ferdinand and Queen Isabella, is sent to England to marry
the weak Prince Arthur, she is unprepared for all that
awaits her: early widowhood, the challenge of warfare with
the invading Scots, and the ultimately futile attempt to
provide the realm with a prince to secure the succession.
She marries Arthur's energetic, athletic brother Henry,
only to encounter fresh obstacles, chief among them
Henry's infatuation with the alluring but wayward Anne
Boleyn. In The Spanish Queen, bestselling novelist Carolly
Erickson allows the strong-willed, redoubtable Queen
Catherine to tell her own story, tale that carries her
from the scented gardens of Grenada to the craggy
mountains of Wales to the conflict-ridden Tudor court.
Surrounded by strong partisans among the English, and with
the might of Spanish and imperial arms to defend her,
Catherine soldiers on, until her union with King Henry is
severed and she finds herself discarded, and tempted to
take the most daring step of her life.
