Pleasant book

This is a pleasant book about the life of Hortence, daughter of Josephine Bonapart, and step daughter to Napolean Bonapart. This book seems to be a well researched book about her life. Unfortunately her life is a bit of a bore. If you have the chance read it, if not don't kill yourself to get the book. However, don't be discouraged from Norah Lofts. Try her books "Kings Pleasure" "The Concubine" or one of her bests..."Lost Queen."
