Harold Nicolson's diverse entanglements with British party politics in the 1930's were characterized by a peculiar vacillation. Despite Vita Sackville-West's advocacy of the superiority of "private life," Nicolson was driven into the political arena by his ambition to become a "public face," and his ambivalence sheds light on the political complexities of the decade
