Katherine Seton, Anya London Hodder & Stoughton 1954 First Edition Cloth Very Good + No Jacket We all know of Chaucer, but we don't necessarily know of his wife's sister, Katherine de Roet Swynford, but perhaps we should. Seton aims to correct this situation with a top-notch story of Medieval England, love, lust and all the rest. Katherine came from France to become nanny for the Duke of Lancaster, John of Gaunt's children. She became his mistress and eventually his wife. Cover (red cloth with gilt shield to front and gilt titles and devices to spine) is faded and lightly soiled. Text block is clean and tight with family tree on rear endpaper. Price: 16.95 GBP
