<DIV>A tongue-in-cheek ?autobiography’ of a young man plundering his way through life. As a schoolboy he inherits an estate from his dull father and then goes to Oxford University; adroitly evades service in the First World War, and finally becomes a Government minister in the 1930s. Fox-Ingleby will do anything to get what he wants ? power, prestige, money, and sex!</DIV>
