No contemporary images of her remain, and the chroniclers of her age left us only the faintest clues as to her life. Who was this spectral queen? Num Pages: 320 pages, col. Illustrations, maps, ports. (chiefly col.). BIC Classification: 1DBKE; 3H; BGR; HBJD1; HBLC1. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 197 x 130 x 21. Weight in Grams: 242.
