A charming, informative autobiography

This autobiography, first published in 1970, gives the reader a "you are there" portrait of upper-class British society, 1919-1935. Despite her reputation as 'just' a writer of lightweight romances, this is not a lightweight story. Ms. Cartland lost her father in WWI -- and her personal history highlights why young people of the era (those who could afford it, anyway) turned the pursuit of fun and good times into a way to live their lives. Aside from that, it's a very interesting social commentary, and filled with interesting tidbits about famous and well-known personalities (such as Churchill; George Curzon; Max Beaverbrook, Noel Coward, et al.) of the time.
