This is a Downing Street diary with a difference; it was written by a woman. Margot Asquith was not a politician, but, as the wife of the prime minister, and one of the most remarkable characters of her generation, she had access to everyone, from the King to the footman. She always spoke her mind, and invariably wrote about it afterwards. The result is a unique record, not just of Britain during World War I, but also of the eclipse of one of the greatest statesmen of any era, H. H. Asquith.
