The Honourable Catherine is the sequel to my last book, Jane Sinclair. It was written on behalf of those who asked for it.
Catherine (Poppet) and Christopher are the children of Lady Jane and Sir Charles Cholmondelay, pronounced chumley. The two have an uncanny rapport that is activated in times of extreme stress, in peacetimes, and during action in the First World War. Chris loses his memory due to a wound incurred during an action against the Germans. Rescued by Poppet, he is lost to her for several years.
About the author
Originally from North Carolina, David Edwards' creative talents were cultivated while attending the University of South Carolina. Although he officially received a BA in psychology, Edwards' first photography classes transformed him into a self-proclaimed "darkroom rat." Edwards studied photography with Gunars Strazdins in the Art Department and Gene Crediford in the Journalism School at USC. College weekends often found him on the road to remote areas of the North Carolina mountains, photographing the people and landscapes of Appalachia. His art has been influenced by the work of Walker Evans, Diane Arbus, and Ralph Eugene Meatyard.Edwards moved to Charleston, SC, in 1990, and immediately connected to its uniquely Southern characters and bohemian milieu. He began working as a freelance photographer, taught photography at the Gibbes Museum Studio and has been obsessing over camera work artistically and professionally for nearly four decades. His photography subjects include architecture, people, figure studies, and landscapes. David's work expresses a poetic intimate relationship between the camera and subject.David's photography has been featured in the following venues: A Promise to the Future: Thirty Years of Preserving and Protecting Edisto Island, Charleston Magazine, Art Fields (Merit Award winner, 2020), Mepkin Abbey, Gibbes Museum of Art, McKissick Museum of Art, Piccolo Spoleto, Charleston City Gallery, Tiemaker's Gallery, and the Southern Visions traveling exhibit. Edwards is represented by Corrigan Gallery, 38 Queen Street in Charleston.
