Autorenporträt
June Durant is a retired teacher, a member of the Jane Austen Society of the UK and an amateur genealogist. She enjoys traveling-once hitchhiking around the coast of the Iberian Peninsular and into North America, living and working for ten years in Africa and twice sailing around the world-on a container ship and some years later on a cruise ship. June lives in Berkshire, close to her twin daughters, and thus delights in being part of her four grandchildren as they grow into adulthood.
