England's Mistress: The Infamous Life of Emma Hamilton by Kate Williams
4.0
That book in interesting way shows life of 18th century women, her way of her life goals.
Her early years were harsh but despite that she had Interesting life.
She was very often painted as e.g. goddess Circe.
Later on her fashion was desirable, as being quite known in society. When she was with Captain Nelson & in difficult times for aristocracy, revolutionary times. She even become close friend of Queen Maria Carolina of Austria.
And then she was spending lots of pound when being under Nelson's wings. Only to go in debts after his death.
She have left her life in London and Naples but died on French soil “just months before the End of the War.”
It’s moving Biography of women whose life hardened her a bit and with sad ending to the story.
