Margot Asquith was perhaps the most daring & unconventional Prime Minister`s wife in British history. Known for her wit, style & habit of speaking her mind, she transformed 10 Downing Street into a glittering social & intellectual salon. Yet her last four years at Number 10 were a period of intense emotional & political turmoil in her private & public life. In 1912, when Anne de Courcy`s book opens, rumblings of discontent & cries for social reform were encroaching on all sides
- from suffragettes, striking workers & Irish nationalists. Against this background of a government beset with troubles, the Prime Minister fell desperately in love with his daughter`s best friend, Venetia Stanley; to complicate matters, so did his Private Secretary. Margot`s relationship with her husband was already bedevilled by her stepdaughter`s jealous, almost incestuous adoration of her father. The outbreak of the First World War only heightened these swirling tensions within Downing Street. Drawing on unpublished material from personal papers & diaries, Anne de Courcy vividly recreates this extraordinary time when the Prime Minister`s residence was run like an English country house, with socialising taking precedence over politics, love letters written in the cabinet room & gossip & state secrets exchanged over the bridge table. By 1916, when Asquith was forced out of office, everything had changed. For the country as a whole, for those in power, for a whole stratum of society, but especially for the Asquiths & their circle, it was the end of an era. Life inside Downing Street would never be the same again.
