This biography details George Walden's accounts of his amorous adventures in Cold War Moscow, Hong Kong and Peking and the sentimental education of a young diplomat in his days at the foreign office. Though his passionately held views on a number of subjects, particularly European culture, shine out, it is principally with a strong impression of the author's personality and unsuitability for the life of a politician that the reader will leave this book.
