Cecil Beaton’s second volume of diaries begins as World War II looms and finds him worrying that warfare “is specifically designed to show up [his] inadequacy in every possible capacity.” Such a concern is typical of a perfectionist like Beaton. However, subsequent entries prove his doubts were unfounded, as he travels the world as official photographer for the British Ministry of Information, and closer to home, photographing Winston Churchill and various members of the British royal family. More personally, he speculates on the chances of a German invasion and writes about how the war has affected the lives of society friends like Diana Cooper, Emerald Cunard, and Stephen Tennant.

“In the absence of telephone and telegram the art of letter writing is again practised. The war has made correspondents of us all.” 

--Cecil Beaton

Quality shades
Color: Blue Tortoise Dark Grey/Dark Grey, Size: 54/17/145
I need Rx in my shades for reading. I bought these thinking I can get away with wearing regular sunglasses but not a great idea on my part. Little too foggy. I do love them nevertheless and will gift them. They are sturdy and well-made.

I love sunglasses and this ones are so pretty. They have this blue-brown combination that it’s just perfect. They are not too big and not too small. I love them!
