Jimmy,  Does Debbie have a website where she might have that gown on display? I will search google to see if she does, and if you find out before I do, let...

Hello Patricia, Â When I read Victoria Holt's Confessions of a Queen, I was moved to tears also when her children were taken from her. It left a far more...
Oh, Tim, no, I read the book, and did not listen to the audio tapes. This book was given to me by a Patricia H back in the 60's.  I read it so long ago...
