Mistress of Hardwick
by Alison Plowden
This book is not a conventional biography. It grew out of the series of television programmes Mistress of Hardwick which set out to tell the story of that formidable woman of property, dynast and creative genius who became successively Mrs Robert Barlow, Lady Cavendish, Lady St Loe and Countess of Shrewsbury, but who is better known as Bess of Hardwick - a woman outstanding in an age of outstanding women and as renowned in her own sphere as her contemporary Queen Elizabeth.
