Ann of Cambray

The Lady Ann was born in a fateful year—Henry the first king of that name, had died with no son to succeed him and England had plunged headlong into civil war, with the crown as the victors prize. The unreast had sprad deep into hat unhappy land, even as far as her beloved Cambray, from whose stone walls her father’s men had many times ridden to quell the wild borderlands of the Welsh Marches. Now, with her home in other hands and her own future entrusted to her partisan overlord, it was time for the name of Ann of Cambray to blaze like a beacon though those dark days of twelfth century England.This is her chronicle.
