Mrs. Jordan's Profession: The Actress and the Prince (American)
Alfred A. Knopf, April 1995. Hardcover. Used - Very Good / Very Good. Item #277928
ISBN: 0679410716
In a brilliant piece of detective work, Tomalin--whose book about Nelly Ternan, Charles Dickens's secret mistress, won prizes as the best biography of 1991--has retrieved Dora, her story and her world, from the obscurity of lost letters and unexamined documents. As social history, the tale is irresistible; as a love story with a painful and brutal ending, it is unforgettable. Slight slant to spine.
