With her extraordinary style and engaging wit, she both delighted and scandalized the British press and public. She would later even inspire William Thackeray when he was writing his classic Vanity Fair, providing the inspiration for the alluring social climber Becky Sharp. But Elizabeth's real story is more complex and surprising than anything out of fiction..."--Jacket. Genre:  Biographies.
