March 10, 2023, 11:34 a.m. by South Milton Thursday ClubThank you so much for giving us such a wonderful afternoon yesterday.
I have been getting messages from lots of people, saying how much they enjoyed your presentation, how informative it was and what fun it all was. Appearing in full period costume which you make yourself, you brought your book on the life of Lady Katherine Champernowne 'A Woman of Noble Wit' to life through a fascinating and fun presentation.

An Incredible Book
Jan. 24, 2023, 9:17 a.m. A review for 'A Woman of Noble Wit', by Dr Marilyn FryerThis book is a joy to read. Rooted in meticulous historical research, it offers a unique insight into the life of a Tudor noblewoman including the strictures she endures and eventually overcomes. This is set against a backcloth of war and social upheaval which challenges her, her family, and others - rich and poor.
Enjoyable and an accurate glimpse of every day life in the Tudor period

Well researched and written, thoroughly enjoyable. The author brings her enthusiasm and knowledge of the period to life. You gain an insight into what life must have been like for people who weren't part of the court during the turmoil of Tudor times. The characters are people who really existed in the west country.

Sept. 30, 2022, 2:21 p.m. A review for 'A Woman of Noble Wit', by Ian from Exmouth.....a book that was hard to put down
I do not read much by way of novels or fiction of any kind but this book is on a different level. Rosemary has taken facts, extensively and carefully researched, and woven a ‘what might have been’ story around what is known. The detail of her writing and the way the story was woven around truth and developed into over 400 pages of intrigue and a ‘longing to know what happened next’ contributed to a book that was hard to put down. The detail of her researches and the way the facts have been used in her book are quite …
