I love this author

Once again he brings a woman to life. As well as those around her. The characters are brought together against the tapestry in which they live loved, fought and died. If you are a lover of historical fiction, he is as far as I’m concerned, the best.

Jennie Gets Her Due

Considering one of earlier American “Dollar Princesses”, Jennie Jerome is a fascinating character. Known best for being the mother of Winston Churchill, she gets relegated to the history books as a footnote. But she is an important example of the power, both socially and politically, that women held in the late 19th century. She truly lived and loved how she wanted to and while she certainly was scandalous, she still managed to retain her position in England’s aristocracy until her death. I didn’t know what to expect from a male author writing about a woman, but Gortner does an amazing job of it. I will definitely look for his other historical fictionalized bios in the future.
