by Diana Mitford (Author), Selina Hastings (Foreword by)

Diana Mitford was the most glamorous of Winston Churchill's nieces and an inspiration for writers and artists-the National Gallery even immortalised her as the muse of oratory. Here she narrates in her riveting, inimitable way her exceptional aristocratic life. Many of the 20th century's most talked-about characters were friends. Not only Churchill adored her but also Adolf Hitler, who in 1936 attended her secret wedding in a private Berlin drawing room, and jazz singer the 'Hutch'. Her first marriage to Britain's richest man ended in scandal when she became the lover of Britain's most controversial politician. After the war, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor entered her life, as did Nelson Mandela.
