The Lady Penelope: The Lost Tale of Love and… by Sally Varlow

excellent biography of a British woman who inspired poets and Shakespeare, wrongly maligned by male historians

The Lady Penelope: The Lost Tale of Love and… by Sally Varlow

I wasn't very happy with this account o0f Penelope Devereux. The author has done her research, it is true, but she doesn't write very well at all.
