Description
"Jennie Jerome, also known as Lady Randolph Churchill, mother of England's greatest statesman, was born in Brooklyn, NY, and was the daughter of a Wall Street operator. She was a single-minded and dynamic woman, who overcame her notorious upbringing as an exile in Europe, where she survived revolution and mass murder to become the first American woman to conquer London society and play a major role in British politics. In his new book, author Charles Higham draws from previously overlooked sources to provide an insight into the life and times of this society beauty."--Jacket.
