’[Michelle White's] nuanced exploration of extant material from the period provides a usefully broad overview of the queen's roles (both real and perceived) in England during the years of her marriage.’ Sixteenth Century Journal ’Michelle Anne White has added a fascinating study to the growing literature on the subject of the royalist cause in the British isles and beyond during the civil wars and it is to be hoped that she and others will follow up the various topics she recognizes as worthy of further research in their own right.’ H-War, H-Net Review
