 Charlotte Russe Recipe - Mrs Beeton Revisited from The Foody
For arranging the biscuits in the mould, cut them to the shape required, so that they fit in nicely and level them with the mould at the top, that, when turned out, there may be something firm to rest upon.
Mode - Procure about 18 Savoy biscuits, or ladies’-fingers, as they are sometimes called; brush the edges of them with the white of an egg, and line the bottom of a plain round mould, placing them like a star or rosette.
Whisk the cream to a stiff froth, with the sugar, flavouring, and melted isinglass; fill the charlotte with it, cover with a slice of sponge-cake cut in the shape of the mould; place it in ice, where let it remain till ready for table; then turn it on a dish, remove the mould, and serve.

 Welcome to the Savoy Ballroom Website www.savoyballroom.com
Harlem's Savoy Ballroom was a major music and dance powerhouse of the SWING ERA that lasted from the early 1930's to the mid 1940's.
The sad truth is that the Savoy records were destroyed and thus in order to understand its history we are obliged to undertake the laborious task of collecting surviving fragments of information and gathering oral recollections in order to piece together the main facets of the story.
In a way they could all be right in that the Savoy represented something special to each generation that was fortunate enough to swing out on its superlative floor, although of course each individual claim does not cancel out the validity of the competing versions of the other generations.

 Charles II of Savoy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Charles II or Charles John Amadeus (Carlo Giovanni Amedeo in Italian) (1489-1496), was the Duke of Savoy from 1490 to 1496 but his mother Blanche of Montferrat (1472-1519) was the actual ruler as a Regent.
His duchy was therefore inherited by his granduncle Philip (reigned 1496-97), the male heir of the Savoy line.
Charles's and Violanta's next heir general was their first cousin Princess Charlotte of Naples (1479-1506), daughter of their aunt Anna of Savoy.
