Orlando was a man till the age of thirty...
- he was present at the court of Elizabeth I (ie before 1603) and is ambassador during the reign of Charles II (ie after 1660) so he ought to be between 80 and 90 years old rather than thirty. I wonder if it would help to read puck of pook's hill to contextualise this, or is she simply dynamiting her father's lifetime work on the Dictionary of National Biography?

Orlando had become a woman there is no denying it. But in every other respect, Orlando remained precisely as he had been.
- is this the jumping off point for Harpman's Orlanda?

Hmph. Second mention of tunbridge wells. Which didn't exist as a tiwn at the time when the narrative is unfolding. Presumably like the illustrations stressing the fictional potential of biography and history?

The illustrations of this book also annoy me.
