Corvill Family Saga #1

The first volume in the enthralling Corvill Weaving saga Scotland, the mid nineteeth century. Weaving is booming, tartan all the rage, and young Jenny Corvill is determined that her father's firm should receive Queen Victoria's royal seal of approval. Jenny may be fearless, but to somehow manage her way into Balmoral and engineer a meeting with the Queen could be beyond her ? even without the handsome equerry, Captain Bobby Prentiss, standing in her way . . .

Dishwashing enjoyable book and him looking forward to The next book in the corvill family saga i say 5 STARS for very good read

[Sue · Rating 3 out of 5]

A realistic book set in mid-nineteenth century Scotland. Jenny Cornell learns about men, and gros up discovering new emotions. This is set alongside vivid descriptions of the tartan weaving trade. Many characters were apparently based on real people. Quite interesting but not very emotive.
