Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The king had a weakness for beautiful women, and he had been an incorrigible ladies' man. He had kept tabs on his lover's adventures through the years, after she had been forced to flee Bavaria and then had become an international celebrity. #2 Lola Montez was born in 1821 in the town of Grange, Ireland. She was a healthy, cheerful girl with lovely features much like her mother's. She was taken care of by her father, an ensign in the British army, who married her mother when she was just 14. #3 When his daughter was born, Edward looked for a better-paid position that would offer greater opportunities for advancement. He traded his post in County Sligo for one in India. When the ship arrived at Diamond Harbour, Edward was informed that his unit had already left for the garrison of Dinapore, near the Nepalese border. #4 The journey was a difficult one for Edward's unit. They were near Patna, some four hundred miles upriver on the Ganges, which they would have to travel on small, triangular-sailed boats. The heat and the stench of the pestilent wetlands would accompany them throughout the entire journey.
