"[A] remarkable biography... Moorehead deftly wields periods detail... to tell the story of a captivating woman who kept her sense of self amid the vicissitudes of politics."
-- Vogue

From acclaimed biographer Caroline Moorhead comes Dancing to the Precipice, a sweeping chronicle of the remarkable life of Lucie de la Tour du Pin -- "an astute, thoroughly engaging biography of a formidable woman" (Boston Globe) who, over the span of some 80 years, was witness to, and often a participant in the major social upheavals of eighteenth-century French history.
