Many know Lord Byron as leading poet of the Romantic movement. But
few know the dynasty from which he emerged; infamous for its
scandal and impropriety, with tales of elopement, murder,
kidnaping, profligacy, doomed romance and adultery. A sumptuous
story that begins in rural Nottinghamshire and plays out in the
gentleman's clubs of Georgian London, amid tempests on far-flung
seas, and in the glamour of pre-revolutionary France, The Fall of
the House of Byron is the acclaimed account of intense family drama
over three turbulent generations.
