Harriette Wilson, the Woman who Blackmailed the King
Frances Wilson
The publication of Harriette Wilson’s Memoirs in 1825 sent shock waves through Regency Britain, naming lovers including four prime ministers and the King himself. This biography tells how she fled an impoverished home to become the mistress of the Earl of Craven at 15, worked her way into the fashionable world and, when the Duke of Argyll cut off her allowance, decided to get her own back.
