About the book
"More than three-quarters of a century after a crowd of 100,000 people jammed the streets of north London to pay their respects at her funeral, Marie Lloyd remains a potent icon of twentieth-century popular culture." "This new and definitive account of her turbulent and poignant life draws on a mass of previously unmined sources to paint a graphic and moving picture of a woman whose 'capacity for expressing the soul of the poeople', according to T.S. Eliot, 'made Marie Lloyd unique'." "In more common parlance, she was 'The One and Only'."--BOOK JACKET.
