Acclaimed as the greatest comic actress of her day, Dora Jordan played a quite different role offstage as lover to the future king, William IV, third son of George III. In fact, Dora bore no less than ten children and the couple lived happily in a villa on the Thames until William bowed to pressure and abandoned her. Making full use of Dora's letters to William, Claire Tomalin vividly recreates the royal, political and theatrical worlds of late eighteenthcentury England. The story of how Dora moved between stage and home, of how she battled for her family and her career makes a classic tale of royal perfidy and womanly courage. 'Intelligent, finely made and wonderfully readable. As gripping as the best fiction' Jan Dalley, "Independent on Sunday".
