Mrs
Jordan\'s
Profession is the acclaimed biography of Dora
Jordan by bestselling author
Claire Tomalin \'Intelligent, finely made and wonderfully readable. As gripping as the best fiction\' Independent on Sunday Acclaimed as the greatest comic actress of her day, Dora
Jordan lived a quite different role off-stage as lover to Prince William, third son of George III. Unmarried, the pair lived in a villa on the Thames and had ten children together until William, under pressure from royal advisers, abandoned her. The story of how Dora moved between the worlds of the eighteenth-century theatre and happy domesticity, of her fights for her family and her career makes a classic story of royal perfidy and female courage. From the acclaimed author of Samuel Pepys: The Unequalled Self, Charles Dickens: A Life and The Invisible Woman, this celebrated biography is one of history\'s most astonishing untold stories. \'The strangest and most sensational story
Tomalin has told so far. A miraculously detailed portrait - as brisk, unsentimental, good-humoured and fairminded as its subject\' Hilary Spurling, Daily Telegraph \'Compelling, shrewd in its judgements, exceptionally well written, and informed by a vivid sense of the past\' John Gross, Sunday Telegraph \'Fascinating, affecting. A compelling story and
Tomalin tells it with clarity and warmth\' Lucy Hughes-Hallett, Sunday Times
