Chips Channon

Author

Chips Channon (1897–1958) was an American-born British politician, socialite, and diarist whose private journals offer one of the most vivid and entertaining accounts of twentieth-century British high society and politics. Born in Chicago, Channon moved to England, became a British citizen, and served as a Conservative Member of... Parliament. His diaries, kept from the 1920s until his death, capture the social whirl of London's elite, encounters with royalty, and the political dramas of the interwar and postwar periods with remarkable candour and wit. Published in multiple volumes, the diaries have been hailed as a treasure trove for historians and general readers alike. The audiobooks and books bring Channon's irresistible voice to life for modern audiences. Read more Show less
