Reading someone’s love letters gives you a brief peek into not only their life, but also their heart.
by C.H. Charles
This book contains the love letters that were in the Sex and the City movie. It also includes love letters written by Napoleon Bonaparte, Winston Churchill and Harriet Beecher Stowe. Nice compilation.
by Babbette Hines
The author has salvaged love letters from estate sales, flea markets and garage sales. The letters are paired with nostalgic photographs to help further cast their spell.
by David Lowenherz
Wonderful compilation of love letters from some famous people (Admiral Horatio Nelson, Ernest Hemingway, Virginia Woolf and Abigail Adams, to name a few). I confess that I got swept away from the gorgeous language that is used in some of these letters. The love just gushes forth.
by Michelle Lovric
This physically gorgeous books is filled with facsimile reproductions of actual love letters from Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Robert Browning and Admiral Horatio Nelson to Emma Hamilton. This is a great coffee table book to be taken up when the mood strikes. Lovely, lovely book.
