This is a really good story of Renaissance France and court intrigue during the reigns of Francois I and his son Henri. The "Courtesan" is Diane de Poitiers and older woman who steals the heart of Henri, heir to the throne who was much younger and more immature than Diane. She becomes the de facto Queen of France while Henri ignores and dislikes his legitimate wife, Catherine di Medici.
It is only fair to tell you that although the book and cover are still in good shape, the book is obviously split in the centerof the spine. No pages are missing and only one is slightly loose and could be taped with no problem. It was like this when I received it and it is no worse for my reading it.
