Paperback. Condizione: Good. 400 pages. cover worn, some foxingA dazzling reconstruction of the Profumo Affair which brings to life Sixties England and uncovers the shocking truth behind the scandal. Britain in the ear ly 1960s was dominated by the legacy of two world wars. Prime Minister Harold Ma cmillan, the Edwardian stalwart, led a Conservative government dedicated to trad ition, hierarchy and, above all, old-fashioned morality. But the tide was changi ng. A breakdown of social boundaries saw nightclub hostesses mixing with aristoc rats, and middle-class professionals dabbling in criminality. Meanwhile, Cold Wa r paranoia gripped the public imagination. The Profumo Affair was a perfect st orm, and when it broke it rocked the Establishment. In 'An English Affair', Rich ard Davenport-Hines, author of the critically acclaimed 'Titainic Lives', introd uces us to the key players and brings seedily glamorous Swinging London to life. The cast list includes familiar names such as louche society doctor Stephen War d, good-time girls Christine Keeler and Mandy Rice-Davies, and Secretary for War John Profumo himself. But here for the first time we also encounter the full co mplement of tabloid hacks, property developers and hangers-on whose roles have, until now, never been fully revealed. As the drama builds to its deadly climax, Davenport-Hines exposes the hypocrisy and prejudice of a country undergoing extr aordinary change. Sex, drugs, class, race, chequebook journalism and the crimi nal underworld - the Profumo Affair had it all. This is the story of how Sixties England cast off respectability and fell in love with scandal.…
