About the Book

A look at ten trailblazing women whose lives encapsulated the twentieth century and its key events. 'Oh dear,' said Evelyn Waugh of his society friends, 'these great ladies.' In this book of pen portraits, the reader is introduced to ten extraordinary women who were society stars in the interwar years, and is offered a fresh perspective on key historical events, such as the abdication, the rise of fascism, and the position of these ladies in society through the years. From the Churchills to the Mitfords, British and European Royals, to international playboys and film stars, these ladies knew everyone. And everyone knew them, for better or worse. AUTHOR: Lyndsy Spence is the author of The Mitford Girls' Guide to Life, Mrs Guinness: The Rise & Fall of a Thirties Socialite and The Mistress of Mayfair. She is the founder of The Mitford Society, a popular online community dedicated to the Mitford sisters. 20 b/w illustrations
