Biografia breu: Carolly Erickson is a distinguished biographer and historian as well as an historical novelist. She writes primarily about famous women in European history. "I have found the past compelling since the age of fourteen or so," she once remarked. Even before she began her undergraduate work in history at the University of Washington, she had "a feeling I might some day write history for the general reader." To support herself, she has played the piano in cocktail lounges in New York City. She currently spends part of her year in Hawaii and part in the Lake Chelan Valley in Washington State.

Our Tempestuous Day: A History of Regency England de Carolly Erickson

This book serves as a readable and interesting history of Regency England. Erickson explores a range of topics from the political and military to Luddite risings and social happenings. I learned new things about the period and was fascinated by the presentation of a much darker era than what is often reflected in popular fiction.

The Last Wife of Henry VIII: A Novel de Carolly Erickson

Here's what I wrote in 2008 about this read: "OK, a quick read that taught some good history regarding the final wife of Henry VIII, Catherine Parr. She was scholarly and a good stepmother to his children, and risked losing her life in his court, too."

Su privilegiada infancia como archiduquesa austriaca, los lujosos años de gran dama de Versalles y los meses de condena durante la Revolución francesa ya no serían uno de los secretos mejor guardados de todos los tiempos.
Carolly Erickson deja hablar por sí misma a una de las mujeres más calumniadas de la Historia: el miedo en la aterradora noche en que la muchedumbre parisina irrumpió en el dormitorio de palacio con la intención de asesinarla junto al resto de su familia; el angustioso intento de huir de Francia disfrazada; la captura y los lúgubres meses de dura cautividad; y su sufrimiento cuando su esposo fue guillotinado y su hijo arrancado de sus brazos para siempre.… (més)
