Noblewoman, heiress, widow, magnate, and sister-in-law to King Henry III, Joan de Valence survived and thrived through some of the most chaotic years of medieval English history. For the first time, Mitchell reaches into the archives to illuminate the story of this overlooked woman and, in turn, reveals new ways of thinking about medieval women.
