Norwich puts it succinctly: &ldquo;For her, this was followed by a lecture tour that my father undertook in America, the London Blitz, the establishment of a smallholding farm in Sussex, a five-month posting to Singapore involving extensive tours of south-east Asia, nine months with General de Gaulle in Algiers, three years at the British Embassy in post-liberation Paris and, finally, retirement in a house just outside Chantilly.&rdquo; For Norwich, the 13-year correspondence covers his evacuation to the United States, education in Toronto, at Eton and New College, Oxford, and a stint in the Royal Navy. As he admits with fluent modesty, he was the lesser correspondent &ndash; and he rations his replies to one per chapter. This letter from his mother in November 1939 gives the flavour of their relationship: &ldquo;You are the nastiest little pig I know&hellip; It&rsquo;s so sad waiting for letters that don&rsquo;t come and are not even written&hellip; Don&rsquo;t treat me so badly again or I&rsquo;ll have your lights and liver when I get home.&rdquo; And when he does finally write: &ldquo;Really your letters are too horrid, one side of a sheet, not one word of affection or love. This one only told me your gym master had been ill. It was not even signed.&rdquo;
