I did all the Lymond books in the summer of 1995--with several friends urging me on. I must admit I didn't care for Francis all that much--someone described him as "emminently slappable" and I heartlily agree!
But I was a literature major in college, and I REALLY wanted to know what all the quotations were--I could translate some of the French, but that was about all. However--there is a book written by a woman named Morrison that may still be available in England--I "persauded" a friend to bring it to me from London several years ago--that is very similar to The Outlandish Companion, tho' not compiled by the author. It may take time to find, but it's worth it. Aha, so that's what the arrogant Scot was saying!--Oh, that applies to Jamie, too, sometimes. Now if I had my 'druthers as to who the spend the weekend with . . .
