The Marquess of Queensberry" is perhaps as famous for destroying one of our greatest literary geniuses as he was for helping establish the rules for modern-day boxing. The trial & two-year imprisonment of Oscar Wilde following a series of events inspired by Wilde's romantic interest in his son remains one of history's great tragedies. However Linda Stratmann's riveting biography of the marquess also known as John Sholto Douglas paints a far more complex picture by drawing on new sources & unpublished letters. In his forties Douglas was altered by a series of setbacks. The events of the Wilde affair
