She-Wolves: The Women Who Ruled England Before Elizabeth by Helen Castor Book Review

Name: Steven M. Anthony
Rating: 4.0 out of 5 stars
Title: Good English History
Date: Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2019
Review: This book examines the lives of four “would be” queens of England prior to the reign of Elizabeth I. Of course Queen Mary (elder half-sister of Elizabeth) was the first female ruling monarch of England, and details of her life are presented as well. I have read extensively on English history through the years, so most of this history was not exactly new.

Having recently read the book When Christ and His Saints Slept, I was well familiar with the story of Mathilde, the presumptive heir of Henry I, whose crown was unceremoniously usurped by her nephew Stephen. There followed a twenty year civil war which was only settled by the agreement that Mathilde’s son Henry would succeed Stephen on the throne. While this account of Mathilde’s life was necessarily shorter than the full length book on the subject (which was somewhat novelized), it was probably more suitable in length and historical accuracy.

I was also familiar with the story of Eleanor of Aquitaine, wife of Mathilde’s son Henry, having read Allison Weir’s presumptive biography. I say “presumptive” since there is far too little source material to fill a book on her life without an abundance of filler and presumption. Again, this book contains all you need to know about her dalliance with royal power.

The other two historical personages covered in this book were not as well known to me. My knowledge of Isabella was largely derived from the highly fictionalized portrayal in Braveheart. In some of my reading on English history, I had been exposed to a more historically accurate account of her travails, but this was a very good refresher in that regard.

The final “queen” was one of which I had very little previous exposure, Margaret of Anjou, whose husband was essentially an imbecile. Most of these women attempted to rule either in the presence of incapable or disinterested leadership on the part of their husband, in the name of their minor sons, or both. Unlike in France, where the Salic Law forbade the succession of a female ruling monarch, the problems of these women were not statutory in nature, as much as human nature of the period.

It was only with the death of Edward VI (only son of Henry VIII) and the utter absence of any possible male successor, that Queen Mary was allowed to assume the crown. In fact, the issue was more one of religion than gender, as the Protestant Edward was so desperate to avoid handing the crown to his Catholic older sister, that he designated a distant female relative (Lady Jane Grey) as his successor. Mary nevertheless survived he power struggle and paved the way for Elizabeth I to succeed her.

Title: A Captivating & Descriptive Work that Illuminates the Extraordinary Lives of England’s Most Misunderstood Queens
Date: Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2020
Review: In this book, Castor presents us with a well-researched yet different portraits of England’s most infamous “She-Wolves.” While challenging to keep up with sometimes, it is a highly detailed, insightful, and powerful window into the lives of these too oft misunderstood or overshadowed Queens of England.

As an amateur historian, I enjoyed reading this book and added it to references for my own historical works I’m creating.

First and foremost, she provides a balanced view of the women, presenting contemporary evidence and quotes which provide a variety of perspectives about these women who have been so vilified. She doesn’t create fictional characters, by glossing over their imperfections. Instead, she sheds light on her subjects from all sides, and let’s the readers decide for themselves. After all, Queen Isabella pf France herself fell prey to the same self-gratification and tyranny of husband King Edward II. Castor doesn’t rewrite history to make it more palatable, she simply makes it more objective.

Further, as an avid reader of British monarchical history, this work is well-researched. much of the lives of these women is shrouded in mystery, as women were often sidelined. However, Castor’s accounts of these women and circumstances they faced is consistent with the work of other researchers.

Finally, this work is simply illuminating. Castor provides the contexts, machinations, and underlying factors that contributed the actions and lives of these women. Before my eyes, I see the worlds in which these women lived, I meet their parents, colleagues, husbands, and enemies. I trace their complex, interwoven lineages and finally just want throw my hands in the air and declare “Who cares who is King?!? You’re all related!”

But, the fact is, I do care. I care about these strong women, who championed justice, protection, and even power. I see in them some of the same struggles we face today as we still struggle to overcome the short-sighted judgments of many in society; not just of women but of every label.

The content of this work is truly superb albeit perhaps a little heavy. I found myself highlighting and looking up quite a few terms, but I’m not averse to learning new words. Also, I did have to reread some parts just to establish a clearer understanding. Next time, I’ll probably just print out the family tree and timelines, so that I can keep the historical figures straight in my head.

Nevertheless, this work is a must-read for anyone who wishes to get a more balanced and insightful look into the Hundred Years War, the War of the Roses, Medieval England, and finally the lives of these remarkable women.
