You might like her Falling Angels. <br /><br />Margaret: I love trawling charity shops for something different.<br />Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371069000185280668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-43852383979184204262015-01-25T08:02:55.146+00:002015-01-25T08:02:55.146+00:00You find such interesting books!

I can imagine ...wow those drawings are fantastic!! I can imagine the freedom they must have felt...yet even today "explorers" get lost and die from lack of food and water...so they sure must have done something very right!! of a much more minor level I read a book once called: Remarkable Creatures: A Novel by Tracy Chevalier.
