The famed BBC series "The Duchess of Duke Street "was based on this woman.
Daphne Fielding knew Rosa Lewis, the real "duchess" and writes an engaging book, both biography and history of the famed Cavendish Hotel. This small paperback has numerous pictures, showing that Rosa was quite an attractive lady of the time.
Recommended if you enjoyed the BBS series.

If you like the books that (older) Masterpiece Theater series are based on.... this one is for you. It was turned into the PBS Series the Duchess of Duke Street. This book really showed the real life of the main character that the series was based on.
