The Velvet Curtain Series

The phrase “The Velvet Curtain” was in the mind and heart of Trudy Harvey Tait long before she took up her pen to write “The Velvet Curtain Series.” Growing up in the cold war,she had often heard the phrase “The Iron Curtain” and was glad that she, for one, was privileged to live in the

Take the book, Royal Insignia for example, published by Harvey Christian Publishers and written by E. F. & L. Harvey. I remember when my mother, Lillian Harvey, involved me in editing this book shortly after the death of her husband.
