Diane is a history geek. Although her main interest is usually in the Spanish-speaking world, she often wanders into broader fields.
After reading about FDR, she disliked the man but admired his wife. Reading about her led Parker to remember a research paper on Eleanor of the 12th century. Come see if you agree with Diane that the ladies have traits in common.
