Delightful literary reminiscences which should appeal to all who liked The Georgian Scene by Frank Swinnerton or Chronicles of Barabbas by George H. Doran. The author is an American who has lived in London for many years, at first as a newspaper man, later as a literary agent. His contacts cover virtually the whole field of English modern letters. He has a charming style -- a friendly spirit in his anecdotes of famous characters in the literary, social and political picture.
