I think it looks much better now - well done! The dropcaps look good over three lines.

If I was to quibble any more, it would be about the positioning of the front matter.

In the actual chapters you have a nice left/right margin set-up, to give a good space towards the spine so that the text is easy to read even with perfect binding (i.e. paperback binding)

But the Titlepage, copyright and dedication all seem to have symmetric margins. I think it would be better if their margins matched those in the rest of the document.

Oh - and on the title page. Perhaps make Portrait and Past bigger, and make Kate Halleron a bit smaller? But I'm really getting into matters of taste now.

Hmm... I suppose there's one other thing that was often done in older (& many recent) publications, and that was to set the first words (even up to the entire first line) in SMALLCAPS, e.g.:

TRUE TO MARGUERITE’S BELIEF, she did not go back.

But again, this is purely a matter of taste.

en-dashes instead of hyphens

Thanks for all the help
