Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is an insightful and entertaining exploration of the lives of the upper classes in Europe at the turn of the 20th century, a time when many were indulging in habits reminiscent of a nomadic tribe. The author draws on observations of acquaintances and friends, providing a unique glimpse into the personal lives of a vanishing generation. The book explores themes of wealth, class and family, accompanied by a poignant commentary on the loss of traditional English values. The author wryly notes the tendency of the upper classes to rest on past glories while failing to adapt to the changing times, spending fortunes on a luxurious lifestyle beyond their means. With its sharp wit and incisive observations of social customs, this book offers a fascinating insight into a bygone era, revealing the tension between preserving traditional ways and embracing the modern world.
