What an interesting concept to investigate why individuals chose to dedicate a book to someone. It truly is a story behind a story. Filled with fascinating stories in regards to why some of the most famous books were dedicated to different individuals. Again I learned so much from this book. Did the author of Frankenstein really have a sexual relationship with her father? Like they were lovers more so than father daughter? ### ⭐⭐⭐ Great concept, poor research *by R***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 15, 2010* I love the concept behind this book, but the implementation is a bit shaky. Others on this page have documented some of the research problems with this book, including a reliance on wikipedia(!). I found another example a bit troubling: On the chapter about Number the Stars, starting on page 204, the author claims that the Nazis ordered that Jews in Denmark had to wear a yellow star, and "according to legend" King Christian wore a yellow star and then ordinary Danes started doing the same, frustrating the purpose of the Nazis. The author hedges, saying that "this story may be merely urban legend."That made me extremely curious. That's within living memory, so why is it unverifiable? The truth is, the hedging is completely unjustified; the event as described simply never happened: [...][University of Minnesota, Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies]"The King of Denmark Did Not Wear a Yellow StarThere is a great mythology about King Christian X of Denmark wearing a Yellow Star after the occupation of Denmark. The king did ride his horse every day in public, but the Yellow Star was never introduced by the German occupiers in Denmark. The myth of this probably comes from the novel by Leon Uris, EXODUS.In the book QUEEN IN DENMARK (1989) Anne Wolden-Raethinge includes a quote by the Danish Queen Margrethe II about the mythical story: "It is a beautiful and symbolic story, but it is not true. The myth about the King wearing the star of David ... I can imagine that this could have originated from a typical remark by a Copenhagen errand boy on his bicycle: 'If they try to enforce the yellow star here, the King will be the first to wear it!' To me, the truth is an even greater honor for our country than the myth."The Museum of the Danish Restiance in Copenhagen has a full display entitled "The King of Denmark did not wear a Yellow Star," and tells the full story. The Museum does note the following: "The Germans never attenpted to introduce the yellow Star of David in Denmark, and it is a myth that such an attempt was frustrated by the Danish King, Christian X. Those Danish Jews who were deported to Theresienstadt were, however, forced to wear the star.""Uncovering this took little research, and I found no source indicating that it actually happened. This is akin to a George Washington biography relating the famous cherry tree story and then claiming it "may" be an urban legend; it's misleading to phrase it that way, because we know the story isn't true. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Read! *by P***E on Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2010* One of the great things about this book, if you are a busy person, is you can either read the book from cover to cover, or pick and choose the stories behind the dedications you want to read. You'll know all or almost all of the authors by name, but might not have read a couple of books. Even if you haven't read the books, the stories behind why an author dedicated a book to a certain person are so gripping, you'll want to read them all! You certainly get to know an author in a very different way by knowing why they dedicated their book to that person (sometimes an animal!). You get to learn about their love life for example...many times it was very racy and other times it was just a rumor.... Either way, it makes for a fascinating, can't-put-it-down read! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/118973946-once-again-to-zelda-the-stories-behind-literatures-most-intriguing](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/118973946-once-again-to-zelda-the-stories-behind-literatures-most-intriguing) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-08*
