From a quick look on my shelf I see that Jack Zipes
book "Beauties, Beasts, and Enchantment" 1989 has a short bio of La Force and a printing of "The Good Woman," her "most serious fairy tale." (I have a friend who has a summer farm house just south of Castillion - near you??)

If you have a FAX machine number, I can fax you a copy of the biography
of Charlotte-Rose Caumont de La Force from the book, BEAUTIES, BEASTS,
AND ENCHANTMENTS by Jack Zipes. (In case you don't have access to
the book.) My email is nschreiber@pkfamily.nospam.com.
