Diana Mitford was a member of the high society Mitford family. She was married to Bryan Guinness, the heir to the Guinness Brewery. She left her husband for Sir Oswald Mosley, a member of the British Fascists and ardent supporter of Hitler and Mussolini. Her sister, Unity, was also taken with Hitler, and both girls spent a great amount of time in the circle of top ranking Nazis. She was eventually arrested and jailed for her Nazi connections. I was looking for ward to learning more about Diana and her story, partly because of my interest in European history and partly because of my extreme interest in World War II. Anne de Courcy is one of my favorite authors. I love her writing style. She does her research well and weaves a wonderful story out of factual information. I am working my way through the rest of her books, and am pleased to be doing so.
