In the reign of King George III the notorious Lord Camelford alternately horrified and amused his respectable contemporaries. Into the twenty-nine years of his brief life he managed to fit an amazing succession of exploits. Behind Lord Camelford's wil career lies a tragic story. Neglected as a child, he felt an overweening urge to make his mark on the world. His proud and vulnerable natured destroyed, first, his love affair with a beautiful cousing, and finally himself. He died as violently as he lived, but even after his death, continued to cause a scandal and controversy. His body lies today in a splendid coffic beneath the streets of Soho. How it came there, and why it failed to reach the Swiss island he had loved as a child, is revealed in this book. Lord Camelford lived in the most romantic period of English history. He was young, rich, titled, tall and handsome, and a superb boker and pistol-shot. Readers of the novels of Jeffrey Farnol and Georgette Heyer will recognise the prototype Regency hero; yet it is not until now that a wide variety of previously unpublished materials has been unearthed to reconstruct his extraordinary life.
