    This is such a wonderful series – I’ve read and loved each one. Am so looking forward to “The Waterloo Map”. Thanks for offering such wonderful and generous giveaways. Fingers crossed.

    This is one of the finest mystery series around. I love that Barron has captured the flavor of Jane’s writing without imitation. And she brings Jane and her family to life in every book! Can’t wait to read this one.

    I had never heard of the author or the series. Totally fascinating. I’m already immersed in the period and I look forward to a new adventure there.

    Black London by Gretchen Gerzina

    Free E-Book: Gerzina has written a fascinating account of London blacks, focusing on the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Because of a paucity of sources from blacks themselves, Gerzina had to rely primarily on glimpses through white eyes, especially those of antislavery advocate Granville Sharp. Gerzina is quite adept at culling evidence of a rich, complex black life, with significant interaction (and intermarriage) with the white community. Although subjected to much discrimination, London blacks never suffered as much as their American counterparts. The author rightly concludes that blacks have played an important role in the life of London for much of its history.
