Much ink has been spilled on Geoffrey Chaucer, but there’s another Chaucer that should be showing up on our radar, as well. This week, Danièle speaks with Michèle Schindler about the life and times of Alice Chaucer.
I have some news: I just signed another contract with Amberley Publishing, for a book about the FitzHugh family. Its provisional title is "The FitzHughs: The Barons of the North 1321-1513". 🍾🎉🍾🎉🎇
Look what just arrived in the mail! Baby’s first hardcover. 😍 I’m SO grateful to the team at @AbbevillePress for all their hard work making this come to life! The official release date is October 12th, but preordering is most appreciated! pic.twitter.com/akpxLG0zSn
