Her candid "Autobiography," written mainly in the 1960s. modestly ignores the fact that Agatha had become the best-selling novelist in history and concentrates on her fascinating private life. From early childhood at the end of the 19th century, through two marriages and two World Wars, and her experiences both as a writer and on archeological expeditions with her second husband, Max Mallowan, Agatha shares the details of her varied and sometimes complex life with real passion and openness." ---- Dust jacket flap. In 2008, her grandson, Matthew Prichard discovered a box of her old recording tapes with her dictating her Autobiography for her typist. The included CD contains highlights from these tapes in her voice. As new, unread copy in dust jacket.
