The comic genius of Dorothy Jordan, one of the goddesses of the Drury Lane Theatre Green Room, brought her to the notice of theatrical London and attracted the attention of William, Duke of Clarence. Dorothy had been pursued by the malevolent Daly of the Dublin Smock Alley Theatre before she came to Sheridan's Drury Lane, and her daughter, Frances, was evidence of this. Weak Richard Ford had promised to marry her and had not done so although they had two children before her meeting with the Duke. There was rich material for the scandalmongers and the lampoon writers, the cartoonists and the gossip were busy with their affairs. 351 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
