Description
A very good copy of the Second Printing of the First English edition, in an unclipped dust jackets. The contents are fine, with an ink gift inscription on the front free endpaper.
One of the finest memoirs of the 20th Century, with some of the most insightful writing focused on Winston Churchill just before and after he became Prime Minister in 1940. Nicolson never intended these diaries to be published; that they were, ultimately, has proven a great gift.
