Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Infelicia The material for a biography of Adah Isaacs Menken are meagre enough. A magazine article here and there, a few words in this or that book of reminiscences, a wretched little pamphlet issued in 1868, vilely written and vilely printed, whose credibility is on a par with its impossible grammar, - these are the only memorials of the brilliant and beautiful woman who twenty-five years ago was the talk of two continents. The stormful life is over, the passionate heart is at rest, the queenly body is dust, and the jealous past has left us naught of value save this handful of verses which you can read through in an hour - which, once read, you can never forget. Let us try, however, to piece together the few items of personal history that can be depended on as authentic. Adah´s baptismal name was Adelaide McCord. She was born June 15, 1835, within a few miles of New Orleans, La., at a place then known as Chartrain, and now as Milneburg.
