The third of the six Mitford sisters, Diana Mosley was born in 1910. She left her first husband, Bryan Guinness, for Oswald Mosley whom she married in a secret ceremony in Magda and Joseph Goebbels' dining room in 1936, with Adolf Hitler in attendance. Imprisoned in Britain without trial during World War II, she moved to France after where the Duke and Duchess of Windsor were her neighbours. Like her other literary sisters, Diana Mosley has written widely not only of her own fascinating, controversial life, but recorded her intimately-placed observations of friends who also happened to have been leading political and social figures of the day. Her engaged - and engaging - columns, articles and reviews of key biographies and historical analysis published in the "Sunday Times", the "Evening Standard" and the "Daily Mail" since 1970, draw extensively on her unique perspective on the 20th century, which her lifetime has almost entirely spanned. This collection brings together her sparklingly intelligent commentaries, including her thoughts on the post-war reconstruction of Germany, Jung, Wagner, Edward VIII, Lord Longford, "the Hitler diaries" and Georgiana Duchess of Devonshire.
