About the book:
An authoritative and entertaining account of the courageous and unusual women who have been the backbone of the British Empire and foreign service. Their stories – from ambassadresses downwards – never before told, are a feast of eccentricity, genuine hardship and genuine heroism, and make for a hilarious, compelling and fascinating book.
