Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. London. John Murray. 2009. Eighth printing of first edition. Hard Cover. Crown 8vo 7½" x 5" [19cm x 12.7cm]. 166 pp. Dark blue textured boards with gilt titles to the spine. Introduction by Alan Bennett. Endpapers, title page and other drawings in the text by Will Topley. Edited by Charlotte Mosley. Photographic wraparound dust jacket in pristine condition. Flat signed in blue ink to the top of the title page without dedication by the author. The unmistakeable voice of Deborah Devonshire, the youngest of the Mitford sisters, rings out of this second volume of her occasional writings. As broad and eclectic as her long and eventful life, the pieces range from a ringside view of John F. Kennedy's inauguration and funeral, a valedictory for her local post office, the 1938 London season, Christmas at Chatsworth and the hazards of shopping for clothes when your eyesight is failing. Affectionate, shrewd and uproariously funny, her no-nonsense, bang-on-the-nail observations are as good as any antidepressant. She died in 2014. The dust jacket will be protected with a new inert archival Brodart sleeve which is removable. Please contact us if you would like any more information or additional images.
