A drug addict and debaucher of women, Thomas Lyttelton, 2nd Baron Lyttelton, indulged in all the vices and libertinism was exceptional even in his age and rank. Having married one Aphia Witts, he deserted her for a barmaid with whom he absconded to Paris and proceeded to indulge his passion for the more licentious parts of Europe over many years. Despite all this, he managed to become MP for Bewdley in Worcestershire, though served for less than a year in a distinctly underwhelming fashion.
Thomas Frost's book lays bare the deeds of a man driven to excess, providing a lively account of an original hell-raiser.
