Synopsis
Jan Morris, travel-writer, critic, journalist, historian, biographer and novelist, has been a celebrated figure on the literary scene for almost fifty years. Her triumphant evocation of the social atmosphere of the British Empire has made her trilogy, Pax Britannica, a major work of literary history. Her books on Wales communicate her love for the country, a feeling which she has described as her supreme pleasure.
Paul Clements's book is the first major study of Jan Morris and provides a fascinating account of both her descriptive writing and her extraordinary life.
