Whether it's a book about the royals or a book about witches, or one describing how various textiles were made, there's always something to be learned. Well-researched fiction counts, too!Janice Harshbargerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10979616914583582697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6892358786681938797.post-11491884646255027462016-05-30T01:39:49.919-04:002016-05-30T01:39:49.919-04:00What a deal, John!

Although I was just finishing a book on FDR by Frances Perkins, his Labor Secretary, I could not help beginning The Witches too. I agree that so far this is a fascinating read and join you in recommending it.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14139639019457759712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6892358786681938797.post-25278351589830099942016-05-21T23:15:36.792-04:002016-05-21T23:15:36.792-04:00Thanks, Wendy.
