Short But Sweet

This short interview left me with a greater trust for what the author presents, ,historically, in her books. In reading historical novels, there is always, in the back of my mind, a question as to whether what I am reading is historically accurate ,or at least most plausible. I get the feeling this author loves her subject and goes to great lengths to remain true to it, without regard to what would make the story more exciting, thus increasing probability of making money off it. I appreciate this about her and am left to just enjoy her stories, with the knowledge they are as factual as they can be.

Favorite Author!

Loved this interview. I've often been curious about the material for her books and she explained a bit about it. Her books are addictive!!!

I LOVE ALISON WEIR!!!

I can't get enough of Alison Weir. She is the ONLY historian I trust. She has so much passion for the truth in history and it's so obsessive to her that it makes a true and trustworthy historian. Just love her!!
