When words of love do not come to you on their own, then listen to these letters.

Complete, actual love letters of great men like Lord Byron, John Keats, and Voltaire. Leaders like Henry VIII, George Washington, and Napoléon, who wrote to his beloved Joséphine, "I awake consumed with thoughts of you...."

Dozens of intimate letters, coupled with a pdf containing over a score of period illustrations.
