I've just read the first book in the Gisborne series; a must for historical lovers, wonderfully rich writing.<br />Jan Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16016647223297254901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2429560125838989988.post-19386963118659563522013-07-31T11:42:37.105+01:002013-07-31T11:42:37.105+01:00Yes, echoing Dennis - sounds like an amazing life....Yes, echoing Dennis - sounds like an amazing life.
