Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First edition, first printing. Hardback in dustwrapper. 24 × 16cm, 205pp. Signed and warmly dedicated by Hugo Vickers to the title page. When Etti Plesch died in April 2003, her obituary in The Times stated: 'Lately she had all but completed her memo…irs, which were awaited with some trepidation in international society.' These memoirs are now being published. Etti Plesch earned a place in The Guinness Book of Records as the only woman owner to have won the Derby twice, with Psidium in 1961 and Henbit in 1980. What made Etti a legendary lady of the Turf was her 1970 victory in the Arc de Triomphe, when Sassafras beat Charles Engelhard's Nijinsky, ending his amazing run of 11 classic wins in a row. Her own life was no less adventurous and extraordinary. By the age of 40, she had married six husbands, divorcing five of them, and losing two of them to the same woman. Finally she married a husband who could buy her a mare that could - and did - sire a Derby winner. Condition: This copy is in very good condition. The dustwrapper has been neatly price-clipped. Signed by Author(s).

Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 2005. First edition, third printing. Privately published by the Estate of the late Baron de Rede. Printed by The Dovecote Press. England. 2005. First edition, third printing. Hardback, dust jacket. 174 pages. Illustrated throughout with archival images from Rede's own collection. Eng…lish. 260x220mm. 1kg. Fine, in fine dust jacket; as new. 'Alexis, Baron de Rede (1922-2004) will be remembered as the man who restored the Hotel Lambert, where he lived from 1949 until his death on 9 July 2004 at the age of 82. A man of exceptional elegance and style, he lived a life in which aesthetic perfection was his aim and his ideal. He hosted the magnificent Oriental Ball at the Lambert in 1969, and was the last survivor of a world in which magnificent costume balls were given and the beau monde of the world invited.' (from the blurb). These posthumously-published memoirs, edited by Hugo Vickers, talk about his life within the beau monde and include cameo appearances from many great artistic and social figures, including Salvador Dali, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Yves Saint Laurent, Brigitte Bardot, Rudolf Nureyev, Maria Callas and Elizabeth Taylor.
