The Queen's Maries by G.J. Whyte-Melville is about a romance in which a young, handsome farmer falls in love with a stunning young lady in Holyrood. Excerpt: «Many a smiling plain, many a wooded slope and sequestered valley adorns the fair province of Picardy. Nor is it without reason that her Norman-looking sons and handsome daughters are proud of their birth-place; but the most prejudiced of them will hardly be found to affirm that her seaboard is either picturesque or interesting; and perhaps the strictest search would fail to discover a duller town than Calais in the whole bounds of France.»
