The Art of Fascinating, by Lola Montez

0 likes / 8 reads
Eliza Gilbert (1821-1861), better known by her stage name Lola
Montez was one of the leading courtesans of the 1840's. Her lovers
included the King of Bavaria, who was absolutely besotted with her, made
her a countess, and in the end abdicated rather than give her up.
However, she soon left him and continued her career as a dancer in
England, and later the USA. In her later years she published The Arts of
Beauty, a manual of dress, hairdressing, cosmetics etc. This included as
an appendix Hints to Gentleman on The Art of Fascinating, based
presumably on her own experiences of men, and consisting of 50 hilariously
satirical recommendations.
