This is the first illustrated life of the celebrated mistress of Louis XV. which has ever been offered to English readers.

“This is the third of the large and handsome books which Mr. Noel Williams has devoted to the memory of famous ‘reines de la main gauche’ in France, and it is by no means the least curious and interesting, for it illustrates specially, and in some unexpected ways, the state of French society immediately before the great Revolution.... Will be found most interesting by many readers.”—Spectator.

“Mr. H. Noel Williams has made the Court of 18th Century France his monopoly as surely as Julia Cartwright has made the Princesses of the House of Este hers. When Louis XV. is mentioned one thinks at once of Mr. Noel Williams and his sumptuous books.”—Mr. Douglas Sladen in the Queen.
