Eleanor: A 200-Mile Walk in Search of England's Lost Queen

3.5 (4 ratings by Goodreads)
A Hardback by

An extraordinary journey that uncovers historical secrets about England's forgotten queen. From Alice Loxton, author of the acclaimed bestseller Eighteen.

In 1290, England mourned the death of a queen, Eleanor of Castile, beloved wife of King Edward I. Her body was carried on a 200-mile journey from Lincoln to London, a solemn procession that would become immortalized in stone. To mark the places where her cortege rested, a heartbroken Edward commissioned twelve magnificent Eleanor Crosses.

More than seven centuries later, bestselling historian Alice Loxton set herself an epic challenge: following in history's footsteps by walking the entire 200-mile funeral route on the corresponding dates.

As Alice journeys in search of Englands forgotten queen, over ancient paths and modern motorways, history comes alive in surprising ways. Lively and entertaining, Eleanor uncovers the extraordinary life and formidable character of this lesser-known royal, revealing her inspiring legacy and the hidden history of Britain.
