One thought on “The Dolphin Ring appears in eight award-winning books by Rosemary Sutcliff, world-renowned writer of historical fiction for children and adults”
This was one of my favorite parts of Ms. Sutcliff’s books: looking for references to the emerald ring, which meant that the character who wore it was descended from another character in another well-beloved book. I loved tracing the family line back.
