Customer Reviews
Strong French Revolution Historical Fiction
Great way to learn more about both the French Revolution and prominent American historical figures. Anastasia Lafayette is a interesting heroine, brave but not beyond worry. The historical details are wonderful and the story moves along at a quick pace, but the author brings the characters to life with care and empathy. The ebook's interactivity is a great way to learn more about the period, loved the map of Versailles and the period dress links!
