HOW TO IMPRESS LORD SUMPTION

In the latest 'Spectator ' published yesterday he reveals his 3 books of the year to be 'Vauxhall Gardens' , 'The Italian Paintings Before 1400' and 'Castlereagh ' . The last is the biography of the most hated man in England who ended up committing suicide.Mmm.
On no account are you to mention Viz , Shades of Smut or ' Commentaries on the Laws of England ' by Blackstone. The German publisher Taschen has published a book of artistic photographs of the female form with a panic cover so that you can remove the true cover ( Ed Fox ' Glamour From the Ground Up' ) to reveal the more anodyne Blackstone beneath. Look on Amazon . How long before ' The Green Book ' turns blue ?
