Dear Diana and others who are interested, I asked my local book supplier about this British book. As of today, this is what she reported back: '"The Royal Lacemaker is an overseas book not available here. As soon as it's out, we could do an overseas order, but it will be close to thirty US dollars for a paperback." I (Jeri) will wait for comments from others before diverting lace book money to buy a work of fiction. So, somebody who is lurking - here is your chance to tell us about this book and whether it accurately portrays lace making and the known history of lace in the lace villages of Devon!
