Ursula Bloom wrote over 560 books, earning her a place in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world’s most prolific female writer. Her memories of childhood Christmases at the turn of the 20th century recall parties at Warwick Castle, caroling, feasts and ghosts. Ursula Bloom’s charming memoirs are read for us by Professor Judy Elsley.  <a href="https://whatshernamepodcast.com/music/">Music</a> featured in this episode by <a href="https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/fiddlesticks3">Fiddlesticks</a> and the <a href="http://georgiaboychoir.org/">Georgia Boy Choir</a>.
