The Letters of Jessica Mitford

Wednesday, July 04, 2007

Muckraking journalist Jessica Mitford rejected her aristocratic English roots and moved to America, where she became a communist, a union organizer, and a civil rights activist. Editor Peter Sussman and Jessica Mitford's daughter Constancia "Dinky" Romilly talk about Decca, a new collection of Mitford’s letters.

Decca is available for purchase at amazon.com
