Recalling a time before the First World War, the author paints a vivid picture of upper-class British society in the late 19th century. The book takes the reader through the author's days in the nursery, the schoolroom, and beyond, revealing a world filled with elaborate rituals, strict social codes, and a deep immersion in literature and the arts.
