I read the historical novel 'Legacy From Yesteryear' in just one night. I began reading just to give a quick look, but the book was so entertaining that I could not leave it.Margaret Wentworth loses her parents and, consequentially, her home. She’s forced to work unpaid in her new house, The Haven, where the Duke of Rochester lives. Her opinions are well described. The author underlines her difficult existence and her pitiful condition as a woman who lives with little freedom. Her situation starts to improve when she meets James Cunningham. She likes him; the man will be very helpful to improve her existence.All characters in this book are described with rich details about their psychology that make them crisp and real. The backgrounds are interesting and 1800 set is attention-seizing. The plot is marvelous and makes this book a genuine page turner.I would recommend it to every kind of reader.
