A portrait of Sarah Churchill, first Dutchess of Malborough
(1660-1744). Castigated for traits which might have been applauded
in a man, Sarah was described by Dr Johnson as a "good hater". She
was instrumental in the Glorious Revolution of 1688 and became a
strident advocate of Whig principles. She supervised the building
of Blenheim Palace and Marlborough House, as well as managing some
27 other estates.;Sarah was a compulsive and compelling writer,
narrating the major events of her day herself often at
centre-stage. This biography brings her voice back to life and
casts a critical eye over images of the Duchess in art, history and
literature.
