This for Caroline

First editiobn, first printing. [4], 192pp.  In orange cloth-covered boards with gilt lettering on spine.  8vo.  Cloth just a little rubbed on corners and spine ends, else neat, clean, bright and tight throughout.  In its original, illustrated dust jacket, gently rubbed on corners.  Jacket is now protected in a Mylar-style clear protective sleeve.  The true life story of one of the most dynamic early 19th century personalities - Lady Caroline Lamb.  Perhaps best-known now for her association with Lord Bryon, latter day biographers have depicted her as an evil influence and Bryon and his wife as victims of her malevolent deception.  Leslie offers a different interpretation and, against the background of Regency splendour and a sinister undercurrent of industrial revolt, she follows the career of this enchanting and shocking creature who, when launched upon Society at the age of 17, took London and the heart of a future Prime Minister by storm.
