    Mariette I just came over from 'Savannah Granny's' blog as Victoria was/is one of my favorite magazines. I have years 1999 and 2000 of their hard cover Christmas books and would greatly appreciate a 1997 copy.

    I am a long time ago, transplanted Virginia, now living in the Great Northwest...Canada, eh! There are still things I miss about the South and you can bet your blog will find me a regular visitor. Your blog sounds very appealing and I am going to persue it since I see you just moved back from Italy and hope you tell us more about this country and Natural Healing is one of my weaknesses as are 'Historical novels' but Historical lives of Saints top the list.

    Would love to add this book to my other Victoria books and also I have most of all the Victorian magazines since its inception. I would count it as a belated 59th wedding anniversary; which by the way is tomorrow. My dear one is Canadian and he is as dear to me now as he was to me back in 1952.

    With gratitude,
    Sylvia Faye
