The Story Of A Beautiful Duchess is a biographical account of the life and times of Elizabeth Gunning, written by Horace Bleackley. Elizabeth Gunning was a renowned beauty in 18th century England, who became a duchess through her marriage to the Duke of Hamilton. The book explores her early life, her rise to fame as a model and actress, her marriage to the Duke, and her life as a duchess. The author also delves into the social and political climate of the time, providing context for Elizabeth's life and the challenges she faced as a woman in a male-dominated society.
