Troubadours sang her praises, knights spilled their blood for her at tournaments. Kings bowed before the intelligence and beauty of this woman. Her life, burdened by passion, was as bright and furious as a comet. A break with her husband, Louis VII, King of France, and a love bordering on madness for the handsome young Henry of Anjou, the future King of England—a love that eventually turned to hatred and ended in captivity and imprisonment. She also gave the world Richard the Lionheart, renowned for his exploits and victories. And she unleashed the Hundred Years' War, the longest in Europe. Eleanor of Aquitaine—her life itself is the most adventurous of romances, lived in the blink of an eye.
