If your patron is interested in a series that extends from the Revolutionary
War to World War II, she might enjoy Elswyth Thane's Williamsburg novels.
Dawn's Early Light
Yankee Stranger
Ever After
The Light Heart
Kissing Kin
This Was Tomorrow
Homing
The action alternates between Virginia, New York, and London. If she likes a
good mix of history with her stories, I can't recommend these highly enough.
