Readers, please join me welcoming Julia Gelardi, author of In Triumph’s Wake: Royal Mothers, Tragic Daughters, and the Price They Paid for Glory ,who’s guest blogging here today! Exhaustively researched and utterly compelling, In Triumph’s Wake is the powerful and moving story of three royal mothers whose quest for power led to the downfall of their equally extraordinary daughters. While the mothers ruled in their own right, each daughter was married to a foreign ruler for political reasons.  And each endured her share of sadness and suffering in her adopted country.  It’s the courage and dignity with which they faced those challenges that made them daughters their mothers could be proud of and earned them their true place in history.  IN TRIUMPH’S WAKE is a compelling narrative history, filled with riveting stories that span continents, centuries, and incredible shifts in history.
