Guardian Bookshop Notes:

Subtitled, "At Home With My Friends At Pelham Cottage". The fortunes of the daughter of the 8th Marquess of Londonberry were based on coal-mining, and here she tells of her aristocratic upbringing, her marriage aged 20 and her affair and later marriage to Sir James Goldsmith. But tragedy was never far away: her eldest son died in an accident and her husband died of cancer. This book provides insights into some of the eminent figures she met, including the Rothschild family and Lord Lucan.

Publisher's description:

Personal and insider memoir of the social circle of the woman who gave her name to London's hippest nightclub, 'Annabel's'.
