Ungrateful Daughters

This book by Maureen Waller is a very nicely structure book providing an in depth look at the behind the scenes influences of this period.  "Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown" regardless of who wears it.  William's religious tolerance was needed but unfortunately did not last long.  I enjoyed reading the family letters which supported the action.

I read this immediately after 1688: Revolution in the Family by Henri A van der Zee since I wanted to learn more about The Glorious Revolution.  An interesting and informative adventure.
