‘Reads like a fairy tale … Far from frivolous, this biography draws on original research to give a nuanced account.’ * The Lady * ‘To read this book is to be energised by the positivity and zest of this irrepressible woman, whose life could have been fatally diminished … but who instead used them as a spur to prove to herself – and the world – that life can and must go on.' * The Daily Mail * ‘The first biography … revealing the remarkable life of the royal family’s flamboyant Highland neighbour, a groundbreaking American journalist turned lady of the manor, whose life was defined by the eye-catching outfits she wore.' * The Sunday Times * ‘Immerse yourself in The Fabulous Frances Farquharson … an American who brought glamour and vision to the pages of this magazine, and later – as the wife of a laird – to the remote Highlands of Scotland.’ * Harper’s Bazaar *
