description: Great-grandson of a millionaire and son of a cabinet minister, Alec Allan was to have been a poet, but instead he became a journalist. Now in old age, his memories carry him from a mansion near Oxford back to Berlin in the 1930's, the Spanish Civil War, and the Nuremberg Trials. In this panoramic book, Allan Massie has created an unforgettable picture of a ruling class gone soft.
