I didn't rate this one because it's one of those books that will thrill some and bore others. Tudor junkies or those writing HF in this period, will find lots of great information about expenses, dress, architecture, who was where when, etc. For the casual reader who wants some insight into Elizabeth of York, the woman, it's a long slog to get the occasional nugget/insight hidden by all the detail. I found it tedious and basically skimmed the chapters of accounts and guest lists attending the constant pageants and ceremonies. I reviewed an ARC provided by the publisher which means the parts that would put this one on my research shelf-- illustrations, maps, index, etc.--were missing, so this one will be passed on.
