Lady Hermione Ranfurly recounts, with charm and humour, her early life between the wars: a life of great privilege but also of great private tragedy. As her family moves from one magnificent estate to another, Hermione learns how to deal with change and also how to cope with loss: her parents face financial problems and divorce, and her beloved elder brother Owen is tragically killed in a mid-air collision. This is the story of an extremely courageous woman, told with bare honesty and wicked wit. It is a truly wonderful read.
