Lantern Slides The Diaries and Letters of Violet Bonham Carter 1904-1914

"As the only daughter of Herbert Asquith (Prime Minister 1908-1916) and the stepdaughter of Margot Asquith (leading light of the Souls), Violet Bonham Carter was catapulted straight into the heart of Edwardian society and British politics. Her letters and diaries, admirably noted and edited, provide a most lively and entertaining commentary on both, and prove that, as regards intellect and wit, she was equal of her four brothers, who were famed fro their scholarship and charm....Her passion for friendship was equalled by that for politics....She was, no doubt, as entertaining in person as she is on the page."Carter, Mark B. is the author of 'Lantern Slides The Diaries and Letters of Violet Bonham Carter 1904-1914' with ISBN 9781857998603 and ISBN 185799860X.
