Rosamond Lehmann : an appreciation di Gillian Tindall
paperback
this book has stayed w me since 1997 - as I pick it up again in 2022 I realize I have nothing but admiration for Tindall and what she has accomplished here
Very interesting ,objects that survive when we are gone and what they can tell us of lives gone and forgotten....only heard the abridged version on the radio, but would like to read the book and more of this author....this is history to me ,not wars and parliament .
