Constance of Hauteville, to be specific, the 12th-century Sicilian princess who married a German king, was crowned Holy Roman empress, and later returned to rule as queen in her own kingdom. An amateur historian from the US who has lived in Sicily for nearly 40 years, Simeti augments the scarce documentary evidence with descriptions of the route of the queen's travels as seen in the 20th century.
