1939: The Last Season by Anne De Courcy
A wonderful portrait of British upper-class life in the Season of 1939 - the last before the Second World War.
De Courcy's fascinating narrative switches between domestic concerns, ranging from country-house fare to patent medicines, and the approach of would-be gatecrashers across the channel * THE INDEPENDENT *
A fascinating window on the frivolous social but grave political world of Britain in the Second World War.. The illustrations are delightful * THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH *
