CHANNON, Sir Henry Sir Henry Channon (7 March 1897 7 October 1958), often known as Chips Channon, was an American-born British Conservative politician, author and diarist. Channon moved to England in 1920 and became strongly anti-American, feeling that American cultural and economic views threatened traditional European and British civilisation. He wrote extensively about these views. Channon quickly became enamoured of London society and became a social and political climber. [495] pp. Phoenix Giant 1993 9.25" x 6.25".
