Complete and unabridged, with 57 full-page plates by William Orpen, Walter Sickert and James McNeill Whistler. A man who commanded a battery in France three years ago and now sits in Parliament follows a girl from Marble Arch, and finds she is Lola Breezy, a tradesman's daughter who has made up her mind to go into service as lady's maid to one of the great ladies of his own world. Cosmo Hamilton wrote plays and novels of fashionable London after the war, and the book is a period piece about class and reputation — who may love whom, and what the servants' hall knows about the drawing room. Fifty-seven plates of London streets, railway stations and music halls by Walter Sickert and Lucien Pissarro run from 1820 to 1929, matching the chance meetings and shifting class lines of the story.
