Résumé
Historian and social media sensation Alice Loxton embarks on an epic walk, retracing the funeral route of England's forgotten queen and uncovering historical secrets along the way.
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, internationally bestselling historian Alice Loxton set herself an epic challenge: walking the entire 200-mile funeral route from Lincoln to London, precisely following in history's footsteps on the corresponding dates in November and December 2024.
As Alice journeys in search of England's forgotten queen, over ancient paths and modern motorways, history comes alive in surprising ways. She provides new insight into both medieval history, and the ways in which the stories of the past continue to shape contemporary Britain. Lively and entertaining, Eleanor uncovers the extraordinary life and formidable character of a royal, the hidden history of Britain, and Eleanor's inspiring legacy.
