The Duchess - Amanda Foreman
Sex, intrigue and adultery in the world of high politics and huge wealth in late eighteenth-century England. The great-great-great-great aunt of Diana, Princess of Wales, she was variously a compulsive gambler, a political savante and operator of the highest order, a drug addict, an adulteress and the darling of the common people. Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire, was one of the most flamboyant and influential women of the eighteenth century.
Georgiana\'s extraordinary life has now been made into a major film - starring Keira Knightley and Ralph Fiennes - which is due for release in summer 2008. This authoritative, utterly absorbing book presents a mesmerizing picture of a fascinating world of political and sexual intrigues, grand houses, huge parties, glamour and great wealth — always on the edge of being squandered by the excesses and scandals of individuals.
