A Golden Book of Venice by Lawrence Mrs. Turnbull is a historical romance about the Venetians taking place during the late 1500s. Turnbull writes about the affairs of Venice at a time of great political turmoil. Excerpt: "Sea and sky were one glory of warmth and color this sunny November morning in 1565, and there were signs of unusual activity in the Campo San Rocco before the great church of Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari, which, if only brick without, was all glorious within, "in raiment of needlework" and "wrought gold." And outside, the delicate tracery of the cornice was like a border of embroidery upon the somber surface; the sculptured marble doorway was of surpassing richness, and the airy grace of the campanile detached itself against the entrancing blue of the sky, as one of those points of beauty for which Venice is memorable."
