I loved this beautiful, elegiac, honest and compelling book - a modern-day pilgrimage walking in the footsteps of one of the great forgotten queens.

Eleanor is dazzling, alive with wit, elegance and insight. A book that makes history feel urgent, intimate and unforgettableRob Rinder MBE, bestselling author of The Trial
Alice Loxton takes us on a highly engaging 200-mile trek that resonates with history and shows why a rather amazing 13th-century queen was remembered so poignantly by her heartbroken husband. Written with energetic zest and originality by a natural storytellerCharles Spencer, bestselling author of The White Ship
The perfect walk through history – great queens and small inconveniences, magnificent architecture and crippling blisters. A joyous read!Sir Tony Robinson, actor and author of The House of Wolf
