The first review of *Mistress of Dartington Hall*
From History Roadshow with Jon Marshall | June 27, 2025Jon Marshall of the History Roadshow reviews *Mistress of Dartington Hall*, the latest novel in Rosemary Griggs' successful Daughters of Devon series. … a striking heroine, conflicted, capable, and utterly human... … returning readers will appreciate Rosemary's consistent focus on untold women's stories and her gift for giving voice to those often left out of the historical record... … a compelling and richly researched historical novel that skillfully balances the personal and political. Rosemary Griggs presents a vivid and grounded portrait of a resilient woman navigating love, loss, and power during a time of national crisis. It's a quiet but powerful story of female strength and agency, perfect for readers who enjoy character-driven Tudor fiction with heart and historical integrity—highly recommended.
