Hardback. Condition: Mint. Dust Jacket Condition: Mint. Will Topley (illustrator). Reprint. COUNTING MY CHICKENS . . . And Other Home Thoughts. Deborah Devonshire. Illustrated by Will Topley. Long Barn Books, Ebrington 2008 Reprint ISBN 1902421051 176pp Hardback This copy is in mint, unread condition in a mint unclipped dust wrapper. A unique window on an extraordinary life lived with tremendous zest, discrimination, and intelligence The late Duchess of Devonshire was the youngest of the Mitford siblings, the famous brood that includes the writers Nancy and Jessica. Like them, she lived an unusually full and remarkable life, and like them she had an inimitable expressive gift. In Counting My Chickens, she has gathered extracts from her diaries and other writings to create a multifaceted portrait of her life at Chatsworth, the home of the Dukes of Devonshire, that is pithy, hilarious, wise, and always richly rewarding. Under the Duchess's inspired supervision, Chatsworth has become one of England's most frequently visited great houses, welcoming over 400,000 visitors a year. The Duchess reveals what it takes to keep such an establishment alive and prospering, tells of transporting a goat by train from the Scottish island of Mull to London, discusses having her portrait painted by Lucian Freud, and provides rich reminiscences of growing up a Mitford--along with telling anecdotes about friends from Evelyn Waugh to John F. Kennedy. From Tom Stoppard's adoring Introduction to the author's meditation on the beauty of Elvis Presley's voice, COUNTING MY CHICKENS offers continuous surprise and delight. Ref FF5.

In her beguiling memoir, Wait for Me!, Deborah Mitford, Duchess of Devonshire (and the youngest of the famously witty brood of writers, agitators, and icons), recounted her eventful life with wit and grace. All in One Basket collects the Duchess of Devonshire¬"s breezy, occasional writings and provides a disarming look at a life lived with great zest and originality.All in One Basket combines two earlier collections, Counting My Chickens and Home to Roost, its sequel, which was never published in the United States. In these pages, we hear anecdotes about famous friends from Evelyn Waugh to John F. Kennedy; tales of struggle and success at Chatsworth, England's greatest stately home; and of course the tales of her beloved chickens, which the Duchess began raising as a child for pocket money. In All in One Basket, glamorous recollections happily coexist with practical insights into country life, and the result is a revelation. Included in this edition is a collection of three pieces never before published in book form. Ref YY 5.
