The famous, the infamous and the wonderfully notable people of the Regency period
The famous, the infamous and the wonderfully notable people of the Regency period
Many regency novels, including mine, make use of historical personages to enhance and embellish their stories.
The use of actual people also grounds and adds truth to an historical novel.
I thought it might be of interest to readers to put faces to the famous names of the Regency era.
