Before biography became fashionable, Antonia Fraser made the past popular. The Guardian hailed her as a pure storyteller with few equals. The Sunday Times praised her for her captivating vivacity and intelligence, describing her as a poet, pamphleteer, and artist's muse. Caroline Norton, a nineteenth-century heroine, fought for women's justice. She was a poet, pamphleteer, and artist's muse who dazzled 19-century society with her energy and intellect. In 1836, Caroline faced a dramatic trial when her jealous husband sued the Prime Minister, Lord Melbourne, for adultery. Her determination to secure justice for women at all levels of society led to groundbreaking provisions, such as the right of a mother to have access to her children. Award-winning historian Antonia Fraser brilliantly portrays a woman who refused to be curbed by the personal and political constraints of her time.
