Summary

Con Las hijas de España, Jean Plaidy da término a su extraordinaria trilogía sobre los Reyes Católicos, que inició con Castilla para Isabel y continuó con España para sus soberanos.

Isabel estaba por cumplir con un deber desagradable.

«Heme aquí, -pensaba, rodeada de toda mi familia-. España goza de prosperidad. La bandera ondea sobre todas sus ciudades. Cristóbal Colón ha hecho bien su trabajo, y España tiene allende los amres un reino cada vez más vasto. Como reina, me regocija la prosperidad de mi país. Como madre, me siento feliz. Todo debería estár bien, y sin embargo...»

Las hijas de España narra los últimos años del reinado de Isabel la Católica. La desgracia golpea la casa real. Allí están sus hijas: Isabel, la viuda trágica; Juana, la loca; la suave María, y Catalina, que debe abandonar a su familia y a España, para convertirse en Catalina de Aragón, reina de Inglaterra y primera esposa de Enrique VIII.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

With Spain now united, Ferdinand looked to his daughters to further his ambitions.

All too often, Isabella found herself torn between his brilliant plans and her love for her children. During the last years of Isabella's reign it seemed there was a curse on the Royal House which struck at the children of the Sovereigns.

Tragedy followed tragedy - the infanta Isabella, a brokenhearted widow; Juana, driven to madness by her husband's philandering; and the sorrow of parting with young Catalina, destined to become Katharine of Aragon, wife to Henry VIII and Queen of England.
