Book Review of The Duchess of Jermyn Street: The Life and Good Times of Rosa Lewis of the Cavendish Hotel

The Duchess of Jermyn Street: The Life and Good Times of Rosa Lewis of the Cavendish Hotel
reviewed on + 13 more book reviews


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.
