You’ll find my brief history of the life of Princess Renée de France, a stanch Huguenot, at The Freelance History Writer. I recently wrote a guest blog post there to celebrate the launch of my novel The Importance of Pawns. In the post, I give an overview of the tumultuous life that Princess Renée lived.
Princess Renée is one of the four strong female characters in The Importance of Pawns. She was the second daughter of Louis XII of France and Anne of Brittany.
From troubled marriages to accusations of heresy against her, Renée lived a difficult life as a strong woman in the 16th Century, and still managed to stand by what she believed in. To read the full post click here. Enjoy!
