For every aristocratic Marquise de Pompadour or Lady Caroline Lamb, there is a lower-class serving girl or a fallen woman such as Nell Gwynn. In this updated edition of The Encyclopedia of Mistresses, Dawn B Sova looks at the lives of these intriguing women. Many of them used their sexual prowess in the boardroom, the throne room and even on the battlefield and in the pulpit. From the Greek era to the present day, their influence has forged political treaties, solidified or disrupted political alliances, changed national boundaries and created or toppled kings. This authoritative book analyses the roles of these mistresses and makes compelling reading.
