Opis

Gertrude Tennant's life was remarkable for its length (1819-1918), but even more so for the influence she achieved as an unsurpassed London hostess. This title presents her life, placing her not only at the heart of a multi-generational, matriarchal family epic but also at centre of European social and literary life for the best part of a century.
