Reseña del editor:
Presents the colorful, vivid biography of Georgina Weldon, a Victorian eccentric whose outrageous, scandalous life led to financial disaster, betrayal by her parents, and the threat of involuntary incarceration in a mental institution but whose determination helped overturn England's infamous Lunacy laws. 25,000 first printing.

Born to fanatically snobbish parents on Princess Victoria's eighteenth birthday, Georgina Weldon grew up to wreak havoc on almost everyone she met. Her father was the first to miscalculate Georgina's maverick nature. After he lost both a run for Parliament and any chance of inheritance, he took his family off to Tuscany where he could watch and wait until his daughter became old enough to marry well and so repair his own fortunes.
Georgina had other ideas. Her scandalous affair with a married man and her defiant marriage to the less-than-prosperous young hussar officer Harry Weldon were just the first signs that she was no ordinary girl.
Harry and Georgina managed to better their position enough to move to Tavistock House, former home of Charles Dickens. There, Georgina took in a menager
