“...a wholly charming romance... A French prisoner of war in England seems to present material for pity, for fun, for excitement. Miss Broster uses all these elements in her story... but it is a romance as delicately finished as a piece of Dresden china.”-- Westminster Gazett

Dorothy Kathleen Broster (1877-1950) was an English novelist best known for her historical fiction, particularly the widely read Jacobite trilogy beginning with The Flight of the Heron. Her work is characterised by careful historical research, moral seriousness, and a strong sense of atmosphere. Writing in the early twentieth century, Broster combined romantic intensity with psychological insight, securing a lasting place among British historical novelists of the interwar period.
