How the debs and Bright Young Things of the thirties learned to face the realities of war. By talking to over 100 of the debs of 1939, Angela Lambert has managed to re-create the atmosphere of a lost age. Speaking frankly about their homes, parents, servants, education and what was expected from life: dances spent weeping in the cloakrooms, pushy mothers and endless glorious parties-what also remains in their memories was the foreboding sense preceding the outbreak of World War II. Then even the most naive debutantes became filing clerks, W.R.N.S. or F.A.N.Y. 9½x6in.....We ship daily from our Bookshop.
