Julian Fellowes’s BELGRAVIA

[RJNorton]

Thank you to Laurie for sending this link. Laurie writes, "PBS will also be running a series on Mercy Street, a fictionalized version on the Civil War hospitals that surrounded D.C. during the war. This one is set in our backyard of Alexandria, Virginia. In March, Surratt House will feature a speaker on one of the Northern abolitionists who came to the area to assist the contraband. Julia Wilbur was previously mentioned on Dave Taylor’s site, and our speaker found and transcribed a pocket diary that Ms. Wilbur kept while sojourning in Alexandria and the environs."

For those who were addicts of Downton Abbey, Belgravia should be good medicine.
