Scope and Contents

Letter from Lady Violet Bonham Carter [earlier Violet Asquith and Violet, Lady Bonham Carter, later Lady Asquith of Yarnbury] (Stockton House, Codford, Wiltshire) to WSC expressing surprise that WSC should so strongly object to the description of him and other Coalition Liberals by 1st Lord Oxford and Asquith [earlier Herbert Asquith] in his recently published memoirs as "renegades", agreeing that the memoirs do not give an adequate impression of Asquith's contribution to public life, and regretting the serialisation of the memoirs and the fact that the first letter she has received from WSC since her father's death should be one complaining about this passage.
