'Mitford brings warmth to everything she touches, and her biography of Madame de Pompadour is testimony to that' Daily Telegraph

When Jeanne-Antoinette was nine, she was told by a fortune teller that she would one day become the mistress of the handsome young Louix XV - from that day she was groomed to become 'a morsel fit for a King'. Nancy Mitford lovingly tells the story of how the little girl rose, against a backdrop of savage social-climbing, intrigue, excess and high drama, to become the most powerful women of the eighteenth-century French court: Le Pompadour.

'Reads as if an enchantingly clever woman was pouring out the story to me on the telephone' Raymond Mortimer
