The West End Front: The Wartime Secrets of London's Grand Hotels

The West End Front: The Wartime Secrets of London's Grand Hotels
Join us once a month for an evening of discussion and debate about books related to the British Army.

This month we will be discussing Matthew Sweet's The West End Front: The Wartime Secrets of London's Grand Hotels.

Sweet draws a sumptuous, witty and eye-opening history of the Ritz, the Savoy, the Dorchester and Claridge's, and the eccentrics, stars, aristocrats and criminals living in London's grand hotels during the Blitz.

Come along and meet new people at an entertaining and informative evening of lively discussion. Explore our book of the month and unpack current issues, historical events and popular fiction through recent book releases related to the British Army.

The Book Club meets on the last Wednesday of the month, from 7pm to 8pm. Complimentary snacks and wine are served from 6.30pm.
