At the heart of dynamic group was the amazing Maxine Elliott, the daughter of a fisherman from Connecticut, who built the beautiful art deco Château and brought together the likes of Noel Coward , the Aga Khan, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, and two very saucy courtesans, Doris Castlerosse and Daisy Fellowes, who set out to be dangerous distractions to Winston Churchill as he worked on his journalism and biographies during his "wilderness years" in the thirties. After the War the story continued as the Château changed hands and Prince Aly Khan used it to entertain the Hollywood set, as well as launch his seduction of and eventual marriage to Rita Hayworth. Bringing a bygone era back to life, Mary Lovell cements her spot as one of our top social historians in this captivating and evocative new book. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 10 Elliott, Maxine,|d1868-1940|xFriends and associates. 600 10 Khan, Aly Solomone|xFriends and associates. 610 20 Chateau de l'Horizon|xHistory. 650 0 Socialites|zFrance|zRiviera|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Aristocracy (Social class)|zFrance|zRiviera|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Celebrities|zFrance|zRiviera|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Rich people|zFrance|xHistory. 651 0 France, Southern|y20th century|xHistory. 651 0 Riviera (France)|y20th century|xHistory. 651 0 Riviera (France)|xSocial life and customs|y20th century. 700 1 Rolls, Jill. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 12023026?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ ttm_9781977320711_180.jpeg
