A Right Royal Bastard

Sarah Miles was illegitimate, and of distant royal descent. Her childhood wasn't easy - dyslexic with a severe stammer, rebellion was her means of expression, animals and trees her friends. Expelled from Roedean and Crofton Grange, her mother despaired and sent her to London and RADA. On the loose in London, Sarah revealed a special talent for getting into trouble and an equal talent for acting. She landed herself an agent, fell in love with his son, lived with a prostitute and finally met the man whose photograph she had kept under her pillow since she was 11 and who would change the course of her life - Laurence Olivier. This is the first volume of a two-volume biography.
