King's Counsellor: Abdication and War: The Diaries… door Duff Hart-Davis; Editor
I am really enjoying this memoir of diary entries from Tommy Laschelles, private secretary to George VI during the second war. If you have a heart for this era, this is a grand book! Rather difficult to get a hold of as it is out of print presently. I found a copy in bookshop in Toronto.
