Excerpt from The Other Pawn
The beauty that was among those white-skinned misses was something to marvel at. With few of the advantages of more modern styles of dress and adom ments of vanity, they managed to be triumphantly pretty - in many instances truly beautiful. Beauty was almost a drug in the market, so no wonder the budding warriors' curly heads were fairly turned and their hearts put into commission among the bewildering throng that made fairyland of a ball.
