The story depicts the life of Nell Gwyn and her rise from an orange seller to the mistress of Charles II during the Seventeenth Century. Bowen states in the Preface that very little is known about Nell Gwyn and that what history and tradition do "tell us of Nell Gwyn has been told as a decorative romance, where no liberty has been taken with what we know or believe to be truth." Great affairs have been left out and details of the reign of Charles II are provided only as a background for the figure of the heroine.〔
