Miss Cartland's novels are always glamorous, but her thirty-ninth novel, A Duel of Hearts, set in the dashing, elegant period of George IV, has a breath-taking allure which exceeds anything. she has written before.
Menageries or Travelling zoos-inhumane, cruel and barbaric much like circuses, zoos and aquariums are today. Ms Cartland does not recognise the dissonance here...clearly!
