Harold Nicolson served in the British diplomatic service before becoming an MP in 1935. He married the writer Victoria Sackville-West in 1913, and together they created the famous garden at Sissinghurst. While not an especially remarkable politician in his own right, Nicolson's genius lay in his talents as an observer, and as a journalist and writer.
