Description
Diana Mitford is one of the surprise discoveries of the phenomenally successful collection of Mitford letters published for Christmas 2007. Like her five literary sisters, Diana Mitford has written widely not only on her own fascinating, controversial life, but has recorded her intimately-placed observations of friends who also happened to have been leading political and social figures of the day. The majority of these scintillating articles circulated privately to a small group of people, and are published for the very first time in this volume.

Person
Diana Mitford was the third of the Mitford sisters, and the one whom everyone fell in love with - from Evelyn Waugh to Adolf Hitler. She died in August 2003 at the age of 93.
