. A mediaeval Princess; being a true record of the changing fortunes which brought divers titles to Jacqueline, countess of Holland, together with an account of her conflict with Philip, duke of Burgundy ( 1401-1436). ommenting on the fine and stately festivitiesof which he was an eye-witness, ^ whatjoy the Duke and Duchess made together, and none would have suspected in what bit-ter warfare they had been engaged. It wasan unswerving feature of Philips policy to beconciliating when it was possible, and in allthis recital it is evident that Jacqueline waswell and honourably treated.
