Published to coincide with the fiftieth anniversary of the Profumo scandal 'An English Affair' is a sharp-focused snapshot of a nation on the brink of social revolution. Britain in 1963 - Harold Macmillan was the Prime Minister of a Conservative government dedicated to tradition hierarchy and above all old-fashioned morality. But a breakdown of social boundaries saw nightclub hostesses mixing with aristocrats and middle-class professionals dabbling in criminality. Meanwhile Cold War paranoia gripped the public imagination. The Profumo Affair was a perfect storm and when it broke it rocked the Establishment. In 'An English Affair' the author of the critically-acclaimed 'Titainic Lives' Richard Davenport-Hines brings Swinging London to life. The cast of players includes the familiar - louche doctor Stephen Ward good-time girls Christine Keeler and Mandy Rice-Davies and Secretary for War John Profumo himself. But we also encounter the tabloid hacks property developers and hangers-on whose roles have until now never been fully revealed. Sex drugs class race chequebook journalism and the criminal underworld - the Profumo Affair had it all. This is the story of how Sixties England cast off respectability and fell in love with scandal.
