Sandra Worth

Sandra Worth (born 1954) is a Canadian author of fiction and an American citizen.

For her bachelor's degree from the University of Toronto, she took a double major in Political Science and Economics.

Her debut novel "The Rose of York: Love and War" was published in 2003.

Worth researched the 15th century for ten years when writing her trilogy on the Wars of the Roses. She obtained privileges at the British Museum and visited university librairies across Canada and the United States. She also interviewed several notable Ricardian scholars, including Peter W. Hammond and Bertram Fields, and made more than ten trips to England and Bruges to examine Ricardian sites.

In 2007, Worth signed a two book deal with Penguin Group (USA). "Lady of the Roses", the true love story of the medieval ancestors of both Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Sir Winston Churchill will be published in 2008, and will be followed by "The King’s Daughter", a novel on the life of Elizabeth of York, mother of Henry VIII.
