Autor

The grandson of Julia Cavendish, William Cavendish was educated at Eton and Trinity College, Cambridge where he read English Literature, which came in useful when he wrote His Master's Voice about his time at EMI. Now aged 83 he delves into his family history, including its relationship with the Mountbattens: Louis, who nearly became his brother-in-law in the 1930s; and Edwina, whose scarf intended for King Edward VIII is now in his possession.
