Great Interview

After watching Lucy on PBS present various special TV programs on a variety of historical British topics, I already knew any presentation by her would be an exciting slam dunk. Her thorough knowledge and understanding of any subject she presents, along with her pleasing voice, good humored delivery, and earnest intent is consistent and engaging.

Holly Newson’s excellent interviewing skills and knowledge guides the listener through a wonderful conversation about Ms. Worsley’s book about 24 significant days in the life of Queen Victoria.

a great intro to her book

...the takeaway, I believe, is the unique angle and panoramic view of LW's research, historical positioning and enthusiasm evident upon presenting. Who would not want to drive into her book!
