Juana of Castile was the last queen of Spanish blood to rule Spain. She was the daughter of Isabella and Ferdinand and the older sister of Katherine of Aragon. At the age of 16, she is married to the Archduke Philip of Flanders (known as Philip the Handsome). For Juana it is love at first sight and for Philip it is lust at first sight. Neverthe less they enjoy a happy and passionate marriage for a time. Soon, Juana finds out about her husband's duplicitous nature and the bloom is off the rose so to speak. Because of a series of family tragedies, Juana becomes heir to the throne of Spain,but her passionate nature is used against her by the very men she should have been able to trust-her father,son and husband. This is the account of a woman known to history as Juana La Loca or Juana the Mad told in her own words. Was she truly mad or maligned by those whose agenda was to discredit her? You decide.
