Lymond Chronicles - Reading Aids

Reading Aids

Dunnett helped in the compiling of The Dorothy Dunnett Companion (1994, ISBN 978-0-7181-3775-5) and wrote some of the entries for The Dorothy Dunnett Companion II (2002, ISBN 978-0-7181-4546-0), by Elspeth Morrison. These books provide background information to historical characters and events featured in the Lymond Chronicles and The House of Niccolò, as well as explanations of classical allusions and literary and other quotations used in the two series, notes to sources of these citations, and many maps. The second volume also contains a bibliography of many of the hundreds of primary and secondary sources Dunnett used in her historical research.

Famous quotes containing the words reading and/or aids:

    Boys forget what their country means by just reading “the land of the free” in history books. Then they get to be men, they forget even more. Liberty’s too precious a thing to be buried in books.
    Sidney Buchman (1902–1975)

    It could be said that the AIDS pandemic is a classic own-goal scored by the human race against itself.
    —(B. 1950)
