Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Court Beauties of Old Whitehall: Historiettes of the Restoration If we may believe so eminent an authority as M. Emile Bourgeois, whose "Le Grand Siecle," is a fascinating proof of his statement, "the age we live in delights in inquiry into the private lives of the great and into the spirit of society of the past. It loves to interrogate them directly, so that it may get at the secrets of their passions and find out their state of mind at different periods. This curiosity is not culpable. 'It almost ceases to be curiosity, ' said Voltaire, 'when it has epochs and men who attract the gaze of posterity for its object.'" Such an epoch in English history is par excellence the Restoration. It is a subject on which an immense number of books has been written. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Trowbridge is a book about Great Britain's history and restoration (1660-1688). The epoch of restauration is one of the most interesting and intriguing topic in English history. It is a subject on which an immense number of books has been written. Of the eight beautiful women whose extraordinary careers are described in the following pages, the names of all are probably more or less familiar to the reader, while some—such as "Madame" and the Duchess of Portsmouth— have provided several historians with themes that have elevated them to the proud height of classical authority. The author's goal is to make an inquiry into the private lives of the great and into the spirit of the society of the past.
