Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Concert Pitch When Sir Hubert and Lady Wagner bought and practically rebuilt Stone House, Piccadilly, their position in Society was already established. After Lady Sallust took them up, they had rented the family mansion of the Lyssons in St. James´s Square for three seasons. But, naturally, no furnished house, however dignified, could roof their ambitions indefinitely. An imposing place of their own was essential, with at least two country estates, a yacht and racing stables. They learned their requirements slowly. The days seemed now very remote when Loetitia thought Kensington Palace Gardens was a distinguished address, but it was really only eight years since she and her husband had come home from South Africa with a million or so of money, her two stepchildren, and their social way to make. She relied then on her connection with the Briarleys and her pleasing manners - manners that had helped her to earn a living in days even more remote, before she had met the mining magnate. She still retained her, so to speak, professional manner and the photographic smile that went with it, but she had discarded the Briarleys. She knew now that even the head of the family, Sir Jabez Briarley himself, was of no moment or interest in the world that held the Sallusts.
