Welcome to the Age of Romance
When gentlemen dueled and slaves fought for freedom.
When pirates were very real, and soldiers still battled with cold steel.
When women were chattel, yet swayed the fate of nations.
When words like honor and courage were still common currency.
When love wasn’t always convenient, but an inconvenient love could change history.

My Georgette Heyer Project
I have a mystery.
It began in 2017 with my discovery at a Scottish bookseller's of a volume of Pierce Egan's 1823 revision of Francis Grose's Classical Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue, published at the tail end of the Regency period. The book itself was filled with handwritten notes and additions made by an unknown owner, and they were clearly the work of an author or a Regency period language enthusiast. Some of the handwriting resembled notes I had seen before.
The more I explored, the more I recognized, and the more I began to ask myself a serious question: Had I discovered the incomparable romance author Georgette Heyer's earliest personal slang dictionary with her own private additions?
The answer is a resounding ... maybe.
