A Tale Told by Moonlight by Leonard Woolf

Leonard Woolf (1880-1969) was a noted political historian, autobiographer, novelist, civil servant, and member of the Bloomsbury Group. In 1912 he married Virginia Stephen, and together the couple founded the Hogarth Press. Among his most important writings are After the Deluge (1931-51), a multivolume modern political and social history, and his five-volume autobiography (1960-69), which begins with Sowing. Victoria Glendinning is the award-winning author of Anthony Trollope and Vita: The Life of Vita Sackville-West, both of which won the Whitbread biography award, as well as Elizabeth Bowen, Edith Sitwell, Rebecca West, Jonathan Swift, and, most recently, Leonard Woolf: A Biography.
