I bought one on Amazon over the weekend--a 1950's edition of <I>The Goldsmith's Wife</I> called <I>The King's Mistress</I>. Can't wait to post the cover here!Susan Higginbothamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13517907583894026599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2194642527815628355.post-5856035304701154732007-03-25T10:32:00.000-04:002007-03-25T10:32:00.000-04:00I"m trying to figure out the reason for the dog on...I"m trying to figure out the reason for the dog on that cover. I don't recall a dog being a major part of it. In some of the books I"ve read by Plaidy (and others) the king has a couple of trusty hounds, but I can't remember if Henry II was one of them.<BR/><BR/>The web site with all of the covers is great. It's interesting to see how cover art changes through the years.Daphnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12838072651419264066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2194642527815628355.post-37516510105551293112007-03-24T23:27:00.000-04:002007-03-24T23:27:00.000-04:00Yeah, I think these covers are pretty, but they're...Yeah, I think these covers are pretty, but they're bound to get stale sooner or later.Susan Higginbothamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13517907583894026599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2194642527815628355.post-23728775932652818112007-03-24T07:59:00.000-04:002007-03-24T07:59:00.000-04:00I like the dog, but...

(Not that I have a choice to anyways, because it is the UK cover and for some reason Plaidy did not rerelease in Canada), but still... I think they need new trends in books. Can you see a guy walking around with that cover? They are going out of their way to make these book like chick lit.Kailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.com
