Here, the extraordinary stories of ten of history’s most prominent princesses are brought to life with stunning illustrations and an absorbing text. Beginning with the birth of Princess Elizabeth to King Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn in 1533 and ending with the princesses of today, To Be a Princess spans five centuries of royal lives surrounded by adulation and privilege but also marked by intrigue, revolution and tragedy. Portraits of each princess by award-winning illustrator Laurie McGaw are complemented by photographs of rare period artifacts.
