For over half a century Noel Coward was British Theatre's most renowned dramatist, director and star, and one of the most colourful characters who ever strode across its stage. Published to coincide with the centenary of Coward's birth, these diaries chronicle the last 30 years of his life, from his war-time concert tours, through his private and professional depression in the 1950s to his triumphant re-emergence in the 1960s and knighthood in 1970.

This is a marvellously funny, touching and revealing account of the three decades in the life of the greatest theatrical entertainer of the century.
