Six talks on family tradition
As a child Miss Sackville-West lived alone with her grandfather in the great house of Knole that Queen Elizabeth I gave to her ancestor, Thomas Sackville. On the walls hung many portraits, but the face she remembers best is that of old Sir Thomas, which, but for its encircling ruff, was the face of her own grandfather.
