Review of Masque of Honor: A Historical Novel of the American South

In writing this historical fiction novel the author has chosen interesting characters and an unique point in time. Focusing on Virginia’s aristocracy in 1819, we get to meet men where their honour is everything. We begin with a duel between the two men. These men are brothers-in-law and descendants of founding father George Mason. This is a beautifully written well researched book and I enjoyed the time period. Historical fiction fans will definitely enjoy this one.
