Opis

The first American heiresses took Britain by storm in 1816. Independent, fascinated by politics and clever with money, Marianne, Louisa, Emily and Bess Caton arrived in Britain and were swept into the set of the Duke of Wellington. This is an account of the American sisters who enthralled high society in the wake of Waterloo.
