"Georgiana: Duchess of Devonshire" Author, Archives User, Has Big -Selling Novel



In Wall Street Journal, 6 Apr 00, Leisure and Arts section, is article about
Amanda Foreman's thesis-turned-bestselling novel. Column two talks about her
use of the library, and 'tales from the archives'.  Take comfort, for this
lass has done good, her thesis evolving into a bestseller. Formerly a less
than stellar pupil, Ms. Foreman, seems to have found her niche. And to
think, it all started from the author's finding a letter from an archives?
