The book started off slowly, with childhood memories, but picked up momentum as the author aged. Her account of her visit to India is fascinating, and I enjoyed her insight into social changes wrought by the two World Wars. There are descriptions of her visits to Canada, touring the country on the Governor General's train—a most unusual perspective. It ends in 1945, three years before her death. There's no dirt dished in this book. She has nothing but good to say of anyone. Which is kind of a nice change from most modern autobiographies. ( )
