| Next to Margaret George, Chadwick is one of my favorite writers. Her ability to plunk you right down in the Middle Ages is nothing short of remarkable. The Greatest Knight, about the life of the lowly William Marshal, who attains the highest levels o ...more | |

The Autobiography of Henry VIII: With Notes by His Fool, Will Somers
by Margaret George (Goodreads Author) |
|
| This book was the one that made me fall in love with historical fiction. So well written, I began thinking that perhaps Will Somers really had left behind notes about his life in the court of Henry VIII. It's a big book, but the pages fly by like a b ...more | |

| What a tragic life Mary, Queen of Scots, led. Sad from beginning to end. Although she really should have thought a little more about trying to dethrone her cousin, Elizabeth I. But she thought herself the rightful queen and Elizabeth the usurper, so. ...more | |

| Caveat: I love Margaret George's books. This one takes the reviled Nero--so cruel! fiddled while Rome burned!--and turns him into a very human character. I ended up having great sympathy for him. Can't wait to read the next installment. George's book ...more | |

| I was grateful to find such a focused research book to support an American Revolution novel I'm writing. I'm always a little nervous to pick up niche research books because they frequently get very academic very fast. And then I get bored. Happily, t ...more | |

| This book was an unusual read for me to absorb. It was multiple timeline, multiple point-of-view, which took a little getting used to but was fine once I got used to it. But I also found that I didn't really like the heroine at first. Her behavior wa ...more | |
“Spare me the whispering, crowded room, the friends who come and gape and go, the ceremonious air of gloom—all, which makes death a hideous show.”

“Die when I may, I want it said of me by those who knew me best, that I always plucked a thistle and planted a flower where I thought a flower would grow. —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865) American President (1861–1865)”
