Abstract

This article presents the author's views on the biography of Viscount Knebworth, the boxing peer. Much is revealed in the photographs of Lord Knebworth; the good looks at the time when, with the supreme egoism of boyhood he busied himself in naively hedonistic pursuits, the egoism change from his coming-of-age until his death neatly nine years later. The quality of his Oxford letters and a tea, distinction of style in the later papers would be sufficient, themselves, to disprove that. The significance is that he preferred to think it true-it was, in short, good form.
