About
Historian Magdalena Sanchez offers an intriguing examination of the political power wielded by three women of the 17th-century court of Philip III of Spain--Empress Maria, Philip's grandmother; Margaret of Austria, Philip's wife; and Margaret of the Cross, Philip's aunt--all of whom worked behind the scenes to win favor for the causes of the Austrian Habsburgs. 13 illustrations.
