Diana Mosley was a society beauty who fell from grace when she
left her husband, brewery heir Bryan Guinness, for Sir Oswald
Mosley, an admirer of Mussolini and a notorious womanizer. This
horrified her family and scandalized society.
In 1933, Diana met the new German leader, Adolf Hitler. They
became close friends and he attended her wedding as the guest of
honor. During the war, the Mosleys' association with Hitler led
them to be arrested and interned for three and a half years.
Diana's relationships with Hitler and Mosley defined her life in
the public eye and marked her as a woman who possessed a singular
lack of empathy for those less blessed at birth.
Anne de Courcy's revealing biography chronicles one of the most
intriguing, controversial women of the twentieth century. It is a
riveting tell-all memoir of a leading society hostess, a woman with
intimate access to the highest literary, political, and social
circles of her time. Written with Mosley's exclusive cooperation
and based upon hundreds of hours of taped interviews and
unprecedented access to her private papers, letters, and diaries,
Lady Mosley's only stipulation was that the book not be published
until after her death.
