The Chamberlain Litany - Letters Within a Governing Family from Empire to Appeasement by Peter T Marsh
The Chamberlains were the most controversial dynasty in British public life for sixty years. Based on the letters they wrote to each other during that time, this book relives those controversies as the Chamberlains saw them.
"a fascinating story.." - Miranda Carter, the Telegraph -- Miranda Carter Telegraph 20100524 "Marsh's writing is engaging, clear, and his contentions are well-supported through extensive research. The most interesting aspect of the book to me was how much the daughters were involved in political discussions and debate - and that their opinions were well-respected; of course with that respect came somewhat of an obligation to support and help sustain the males' political careers, which may have been part of the reason three of the four sisters never married." -- Michelle Fabio Bleeding Espresso Blog 20100730
Peter T. Marsh is the author of several major works of historical biography, including 'Joseph Chamberlain: Entrepreneur in Politics'
