True Stories of Seduction Power and Ambition

KORTE INHOUD

Mistresses is a collection of highly-entertaining mini-biographies of ten women from the last 300 years, who used their sexuality to procure power and, in some cases, great wealth. From Charles II's favourite mistress, Barbara Villiers, to the 'Black Venus' Josephine Baker, and including, amongst others, Emma Hamilton, Lola Montez, George Sand, Eva Braun and Marion Davies, Mistresses is a fascinating exploration of these remarkable women's courage and ambition. Packed full of gossipy anecdotes, this is popular history at its sparkling best.
