The Other Mitford: Pamela's Story

By Diana Alexander

Book Overview

Pamela Jackson, n?e Mitford, is perhaps the least well known of the illustrious Mitford sisters, yet her story is just as captivating. Despite shunning the bright city lights that her sisters so desperately craved, she was very much involved in the activities of her extraordinary family, picking up the many pieces when things went disastrously wrong--as they so often did. Joining her sisters on many adventures, including their meeting with Adolf Hitler in Nazi Germany, Pamela quietly observed the bizarre, funny, and often tragic events that took place around her. Through her eyes, we are given a view of the Mitfords never seen before. Journalist Diana Alexander, who was Pamela's friend for many years, here reveals the unknown Mitford, or, as her lifelong admirer John Betjeman described her, "Gentle Pamela."
