Total copies: 1
Before Diana Mosley (nee Mitford) became a social pariah, she was the principal member of the Bright Young Things set in London's 1920s and 30s high society. As the young wife of Bryan Guinness, heir to the Guinness family brewing empire, she lived a gilded life until fascist leader Oswald Mosley turned her head. This biography adopts a new approach in exploring the life of Diana Mitford, removing her from her famous family and fascism to look at the woman behind the myths.
