Description
As the daughter of Charles, King of Frankia, and granddaughter of Charlemagne, Judith could have anything she wanted except a chance to fall in love. She would be forced to either enter the church or to marry a king from some distant land in pursuit of an alliance for her father. She wanted to fall in love with a man of her choosing, but princesses did not get to choose. Not wanting to live her life in a monastery, it was with a combination of relief and trepidation when her father announced she would marry King รthelwulf from Wessex, a small kingdom on the island of Britain. Returning from pilgrimage to Rome with his young son, Alfred, the recently widowed Aethelwulf felt the Frankish princess would bring status and sophistication to Wessex. But before the newlyweds had even left Frankia, unrest erupted in Wessex and รthelwulf’s son attempted to steal the crown. As Judith traveled to Wessex with her husband to face an unknown land, an unfamiliar language, and a new life, she pushed her hopes of love from her mind. Based on true accounts of this amazing woman’s life.
