"Reveals a riches-to-rags story over nine decades of the barely 5 feet high, Pocket Venus who plunged into an artificial marriage with a boorish, craggy faced Earl, ten years her senior, a virtual invalid who failed her as a companion and a lover. She reinvented herself several times, married twice, swindled her son and ended her days in an ordinary Bristol home, perishing at 93 in a horrendous 'accident' in 1969." - back cover. Average wear. A sound copy. Book
