This is Alec Guiness' journal of the eighteen months after the summer of 1996, tumultuous times for the nation - the death of Diana, the arrival of New Labour, Hale-Bopp planet and local events in Hampshire - the dying plane tree, the vulnerability of the hassocks in Steep Church .
Sir Alec Guinness was born in London in 1914 and began his professional acting career in 1933. His many films include Oliver Twist, Kind Hearts and Coronets, The Bridge on the River Kwai (for which he won an Oscar), Lawrence of Arabia, Doctor Zhivago, and Star Wars.
