Next week is the release of Philippa Gregory's new book The White Queen, about Elizabeth Woodville. Most people don't seem too crazy about the cover (I could do without the silver stuff at the top) but it's not the worst depiction I've seen of the woman who was supposed to be very beautiful. There aren't a lot of historical fiction books about Elizabeth, so most of these are different versions of the few that I know of.

unknown year, although I'm guessing from the 80's (sorry it is so small - maker it bigger distorts it too much)

1973 - Now this is what a medieval femme fetale should look like!

Love the title The Woodville Wench! Pretty much makes it clear where the author is going with the story doesn't it!
