Summary: Reader from the south-east US
Comment: Hi
I'd be interested to know which typos, grammar errors and careless proofreading you found in Queens' Jewels.
Rating: 3
Summary: Too many flaws in the text
Comment: A feast for the eyes, of course, but so many typos, grammatical errors, and careless proofreading should never be permitted by any publisher, much less one with such a distinguished subject. Were there no editors?
Rating: 3
Summary: INTERESTING! GOOD EFFORT, BUT WITH SOME FLAWS.
Comment: This Vincent Meylan's "Queens' Jewels" makes an interesting read. It did a good job on the English aristocracy/monarchy. The same applied to the French, the Scandinavian, and the Russian overlords. Its chapters were well-grouped and well-sectioned: thus making it easy for readers to select whatever interests them with great ease.
Sadly, little effort was made as to improve the quality of the included photographs. Also, some of the information which Mr. Meylan presented were flawed. And, the details of some royal treasures, (particularly those of Italy, Austro-Hungary, Netherlands, Spain, and Portugal) were scanty.
Overall, this is a good book (if one ignores its pardonable errors and omissions).
