The Mitfords: Letters Between Six Sisters – A Critically-Acclaimed Intimate Portrait of Legendary Aristocratic Women's Relationships

“Fascinating” (Wall Street Journal) and “Irresistible” (New York Times Book Review), The Mitfords is the critically-acclaimed collection of the never-before-published letters of the legendary Mitford sisters The Mitford sisters were the great wits and beauties of their time. Immoderate in their passions for ideas and people, they counted among their diverse friends Adolf Hitler and Queen Elizabeth II, Cecil Beaton and President Kennedy, Evelyn Waugh and Givenchy. As editor Charlotte Mosley notes, not since the Brontës have the members of a single family written so much about themselves, or have been so written about. The Mitfords offers an unparalleled look at these privileged siblings through their own unabashed correspondence. Spanning the twentieth century, the magically vivid letters of the legendary Mitfords constitute a superb social and historical chronicle and an intimate portrait of the stormy but enduring relationships between six beautiful, gifted, and radically different women.
