In Depth Historical Love Affair!
I'm enjoying this book. I had not realized Britain was in such turmoil in the 1600s; civil war, political intrigue, and to top it all off a wonderful and enduring love affair! Though you should love reading history before picking this book up. Otherwise, enjoy!

This is the only book I've ever returned to Amazon. If you're expecting to read the full text of the letters, you will be sorely disappointed. Not only did I have to wade through chapter after chapter of begats, when the letters eventually, finally, did make an appearance they were edited down to a few lines, and there were translations into modern English inserted in the body of the letters, interrupting their flow. Mind you, I only made it through the first 75 pages before I gave up any hope that I'd eventually be able to read the complete letters, without interruption or interpretation, so I can't say that the book didn't improve in later chapters, though I did get the impression, by leafing through it, that the format remained the same throughout.
