An Empress will make money for you

CATHERINE THE GREAT OF RUSSIA

lived vividly, extravagantly, daringly, passionately, indecorously, scandalously ... in fact shockingly.

Her life broke all records of indiscretion, and stands for all generations as a scarlet page of history, too fiery for truthful writing, too salty for timid palates But Catherine's life has stood also as a challenge to great writers, for, popular gossip to the contrary, her qualities were not all of the flesh, nor her desire all lust. From this explosive material, Princesse Murat has woven a most delightful book, one of those magic biographies that bring other generations to life again, 1 narrative that sets out the naked truth yet clothes this stark nakedness in a delicate imaginative style, a tale that reflects at once the beauty and dignity of Catherine the Empress, the charm and piquancy of Catherine the Mistress.

THE PRIVATE LIFE OF
CATHERINE THE GREAT

is one of those rare books that will SELL long and well on its own merits. So convinced are we of this that we are making to the trade an exceptional offer to secure immediately the recognition that the book would earn for itself in the long run. This offer is outlined overleaf.
