With this fascinating saga of Countess Mary Eleanor Bowes, Wendy Moore proves once again that the best non-fiction books can surpass novels as compulsive page-turners. At the age of 11, Bowes inherited her father`s vast coal empire and became one of the richest women in Britain. Naturally, she became the most sought-after bride in the kingdom as well, but she made a prudent choice by marrying the Earl of Swarthmore, who died but a few years later, thus securing her an even greater fortune. That`s when the trouble started. An audacious young soldier named Captain Andrew Robinson Stoney persuaded the countess to marry him after he suffered what appeared to be a mortal wound in a duel fought on her behalf. Unfortunately for Mary, he lived, and he proceeded to transform her idyllic life into a living hell, by brutally abusing her and squandering her wealth. This led Mary to do what was, at that time, unthinkable--file for divorce. Amazingly, the tale of the scandalous trial proved to be even more outlandish than the events that preceded it.
