The younger de Montfort has spent a fair amount of time front and center in this book so far. Which makes sense, given the topic.
I'm not sure if I would recommend this book or not. It reads quickly and is informative, but the title and ostensible topic don't really match the content. The four sisters may have been active behind the scenes, but the attention paid to their roles is primarily speculative. As an organizing point, they make sense, but they really are players or main characters so far -- am half way through the book.
