War-time remembrances...

Name-dropping Winston Churchill got my attention right away! Through Lady Hamilton’s diaries, it was an insight into not only her marriage during a horrific time but Mr Churchill’s too. British aristocracy and nobility is front and center as Jean’s diaries revealed much about their personal lives and their reactions to the huge events of the turn of the century. Highs, lows and everything in between were relayed from her perspective as well as the knowledge of that time.

A fascinating piece of personal history that adds to the public record of not only their lives but also of the Great War. I believe history, biography and war buffs alike would enjoy this book.

I loved this book which is basically a war diary. I found myself literally engrossed in till the last page I would highly recommend it.
