In his book, James Lees-Milne recalls the early years of his life. He tells of when he started prep school with an entrance so absurd it haunts him until the day he leaves; his family; his military experiences during WWII; and his role in saving decaying houses for the infant National Trust.
James Lees-Milne died in 1997. Once Country Houses Secretary of the National Trust, he is now best known for his memoirs and diaries, described by Jeremy Lewis as second to none in their comicality, rueful self-knowledge and feline observations.
