Mrs Keppel and her Daughter - Diana Souhami

I picked this up on our wanderings in Alaska this past summer.  It's the story of Alice Edmonstone Keppel and her daughter, Violet Keppel Trefusis.  Alice was the mistress of King Edward VII, the great grandfather of the current Queen Elizabeth.  In an interesting twist, Alice's other daughter, Sonia, is the grandmother of Camilla, the mistress (and now wife) of Queen Elizabeth's son, Charles. 

It was valuable to me as an example of the Victorian era and the mores of that society.  Anglophiles would enjoy.
