Interesting! Have you ever read Taylor Caldwell's book: Great Lion of God?
Geez, I read her insatiably as a late teenager, but I don’t remember that one. I remember Costain’s “Dear and Glorious Physician”. I’m going up to the library next week and see if they have it. I might remember it if I get into it.
This weekend son graduates from college tomorrow, and I have 11 people in for breakfast, lunch and dinner on Saturday, plus I have two Marines’ pets I’m babysitting for the weekend. They were both called out of town — one for recruitment weekend duties and the other to meet his intended’s parents for the first time. So, how could I refuse. ;-) Son leaves for OCS at Quantico at the end of the month, so this is our last hurrah for ten weeks.
We’re bbq-ing after the ceremonies at the Muny all morning and early afternoon. It’s raining cats and dogs, thundering and lightning like crazy today. Everybody on the thread, please say a prayer for a beautiful day tomorrow or 11 people and four dogs are going to be soaking wet from sun-up to sundown. But next week, I’m available to read, heh, heh, heh.
Caldwell wrote “Dear and Glorious Physician,” I thought it was Costain. Oh, and “Captains and Kings” was the first book of hers I read. So, what did I read by Costain (he was another of my F A V O R I T E authors).
For my 17th Birthday, my mother gave me Caldwell’s “The Listener”. It’s a treasure to me because 1) it was my 17th birthday, 2) my mother’s inscription is in her very unique handwriting; and C) ;-) I loved Caldwell.
