James White : The Adventures of King Richard Couer de Lion

'I went to see my Grandmother, she lent me 2 romances "Richard Couer de Lion" by Mr White author of "Earl Strongbow" & "John Of Gaunt". It begins with his escape out of prison & is very romantic. The other is called "Leon a Spartan Story" but I have not began to read it yet. They belong to Miss Sarah Shore who collects almost all the books of the king.'

Century: 1700-1799     Reader/Listener/Group: Joseph Hunter      Print: Book
