Books like The glitter and the gold by Consuelo Vanderbilt Balsan


This book is so much fun. If you're interested in the history of the upper class in the US or England, it is well worth checking this book out. Parts of it are laugh-out-loud funny, such as the description of dinner with the Duke; others are edge-of-your-seat exciting, such has her escape from the oncoming Germans in WWI; and others are just poignant, such as some of the anecdotes from her childhood. She is a classy lady and only kisses and tells about those she thinks really deserve it (mainly her first husband).
