About this book
The First Governess of the Netherlands, Margaret of Austria is a book by Eleanor E. Tremayne. Ferdinand and Isabella write to their envoy about the Princess Margaret, saying they desire her health and welfare as that of their own daughter. The book says the Court of Flanders was sharply divided by the partisans of Spain and Burgundy respectively.
The book says Margaret, with her usual diplomacy, saw the danger of a rupture with France at such a moment and strongly advised Charles to keep on good terms with his rival. The book describes Fuensalida following hard on the heels of Henry VII. from St. Omer and Calais to London, endeavouring by every means to discover how much truth there was in the assertion that an arrangement had been concluded to throw over Katharine of Aragon and marry the Prince of Wales to Margaret.
