A Proud Taste for Scarlet and Miniver



Author: E. L. Konigsburg
Genre: Life
My rating on a 1-10 scale: 8
Type: Historical fiction/biography
Number of pages: 200
Time period: 1500’s
My overall opinion: This is a sort of biography of Eleanor of Aquitaine. She and some friends are in Heaven, and those friends look back and tell the story of Eleanor’s life from their view-points. I found it interesting and informative.
