Reviews

This is the first properly researched biography of Lola Montez - nee Eliza Oliver, brought up in India, married at 17, divorced at 18 - who became a Spanish dancer, and through sheer force of personality rather than talent became the sensation of London, Paris, Berlin and St Petersburg before adding King Ludwig of Bavaria to an already long procession of lovers. Seymour's account of the scandalous affair of the King's mistress and its effects on the politics and people of Bavaria is meticulous and fascinating. (Kirkus UK)
