Synopsis

Queen’s Cross, the story of Isabella of Castile, Spain’s greatest monarch.

Her dedication to her people and her religion led to establishing Christian Europe as a powerful political force in the medieval world.

The epic re-conquest of Grenada from the Moors in 1492 is one of the most important events of European history.

Even today this defeat is referenced by Islamic leaders in their struggles against the West.

“...Unfurled in swatches of bright color and sound sentiments, you will like ‘The Queen’s Cross.’”
Saturday Review

“...The narrative puts the meat of living flesh on the dry bones of skeletonized history ... Schoonover’s best effort to date.” - Chicago Sunday Tribune

“Picaresque, romantic recreation of history ...”
Kirkus Book Reviews

“A real contribution to the history of Spain and the Spanish people ...
recommended for pubic school and university libraries”
Libra
