'Before biography was fashionable, Antonia Fraser made the past
popular' Guardian 'As a pure storyteller, Antonia Fraser has few
equals' Sunday Times CAROLINE NORTON, a nineteenth-century heroine
who wanted justice for women. Poet, pamphleteer and artist's muse,
Caroline Norton dazzled 19-century society with her vivacity and
intelligence. In 1836 Caroline underwent a dramatic trial when her
jealous husband sued the Prime Minister, Lord Melbourne, for
adultery. Provisions which are now taken for granted - such as the
right of a mother to have access to her children - owe much to
Caroline, who was determined to secure justice for women at all
levels of society. Award-winning historian Antonia Fraser
brilliantly portrays a woman who refused to be curbed by the
personal and political constraints of her time.
