Publisher : Here is the American heiresses’ story. Filled with tales of wealth and marriage, sex and snobbery-and 100-year-old gossip that’s still scorching. To Marry An English Lord is a heavily illustrated and energetically presented popular history. A rich tapestry of essays, sidebars, fact-filled boxes, and lively anecdotes-combined with a wealth of portraits, photographs, drawings, and other rare Victoriana. It chronicles the story of how over 100 heiresses swapped dollars for titles.
