  1. This is quite a coincidence as I was thumbing through this book at my local bookshop yesterday. Have you read this book Admiral? I will probably purchase it over the weekend. Give my regards to the "California Savages" (Waugh) .

  2. Yes and I recommend it. Andrew is quite critical of the Victorians with much justification. For the record I am too; I'm more of an 18th C. chap myself. A fascinating read with a typical Wilsonian focus on personality, gossip, and anecdote.
