Hester Lynch Piozzi by James L Clifford

Of the many women who have made a place for themselves in English literary history perhaps none has been more often the subject of controversy than Hester Lynch Piozzi, the friend of Dr Johnson, the rival of Boswell, the sprightly, irrepressible "Mistress of Streatham". In her own time she was a well-known figure in London society, with steadfast friends and a host of bitter enemies. This updated paperback edition of the biography first published in 1941 has a new introduction by Professor Margaret Anne Doody of Princeton University.
