Katherine of Aragon is born Catalina, the Spanish Infanta, to parents who are both rulers and warriors. Aged four, she is betrothed to Arthur, Prince of Wales, and is raised to be Queen of England. She is never in doubt that it is her destiny to rule that far-off, wet, cold land. Her faith is tested when her prospective father-in-law greets her arrival in her new country with a great insult; Arthur seems little better than a boy; the food is strange and the customs coarse. Slowly she adapts to the first Tudor court, and life as Arthur's wife grows ever more bearable. But when the studious young man dies, she is left to make her own future: how can she now be queen, and found a dynasty? Only by marrying Arthur's young brother, the sunny but spoilt Henry. His father and grandmother are against it; her powerful parents prove little use. Yet Katherine is her mother's daughter and her fighting spirit is strong. She will do anything to achieve her aim; even if it means telling the greatest lie, and holding to it." -- Authors website 600 00 Henry|bVIII,|cKing of England,|d1491-1547|vFiction 600 00 Catherine,|cof Aragon, Queen, consort of Henry VIII, King of England,|d1485-1536|vFiction 600 04 Henrik|bVIII,|ckung av England,|d1491-1547 600 07 Catherine,|cof Aragon, Queen, consort of Henry VIII, King of England,|d1485-1536.|2fast 648 7 1485-1603 (Tudortiden, Storbritannien)|2sao 650 0 Queens|zGreat Britain|vFiction 650 7 Drottningar|2sao 651 0 Great Britain|xHistory|yHenry VIII, 1509-1547|vFiction 651 0 Great Britain|xHistory|yTudors, 1485-1603|vFiction 651 7 Storbritannien|2sao 655 7 Romaner|2saogf 655 7 Historiska skildringar|2saogf 907 00 160617
