	Duff Cooper - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The son of fashionable society doctor Sir Alfred Cooper, and Lady Agnes Duff (sister of the Duke of Fife), he was the youngest of four children and the only son, and enjoyed a typical gentleman's upbringing of country estates, London Society, Eton College and Oxford.
		The couple's marriage was fraught with infidelities, notably Duff's affairs with the Singer sewing-machine heiress Daisy Fellowes, the French novelist Louise Leveque de Vilmorin, and Susan Mary Patten, the wife of an American diplomat.
		Duff Cooper himself was the subject of a biography by John Charmley, and a major British literary award, the Duff Cooper Prize, was established in his name.

	Duff Cooper's Haig
		Duff Cooper was in no doubt that he was writing about a genuine hero, and he declared the story of Haig's life an 'epic drama', about which it was a privilege to write.
		Duff Cooper argues that the Battle of the Somme was 'the furnace wherein are forged the armies of victory', which honed and hardened the British Army into the fighting force which 'two years later formed the backbone of the force that smashed the Hindenburg line'.
		In justification, Duff Cooper echoes Haig's argument that the British had to be taught to accept the inevitable losses of a war of attrition on the Western Front.

		Martin Russell, who has died aged 85, served as private secretary to Duff Cooper during the Second World War before embarking on an eventful career as an investment banker in the City; but he will be best remembered as the patron of a group of vibrant artists in Sri Lanka.
		In 1941 Cooper was appointed Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster and was sent by Churchill to Singapore to report on the co-ordination of the numerous British government departments active in the Far East.
		Cooper was accompanied by his wife, Lady Diana, and by Russell as his private secretary.

		Duff had led off the inning with a double down the line in right field, and moved to third one out later when Jordan Harris’ shot back to the mound hit off Herrera’s glove for a single.
		Cooper finally broke through in the sixth when Herrera tripled down the line in right and scored on Snyder’s ground out to second base.
		That was the first of eight straight hitters retired by Herrera until Duff’s double to open the ninth, but she would retire Pecos in order in the seventh, while Herrera was caught stealing by Burris after her two-out single in the eighth.

	Duff Cooper. Talleyrand... - Memoir-Biography.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Cooper is ideally placed to interpet Talleyrand-- the salon society that the Prince belonged to is now long gone, but Cooper has a first-hand sort of feeling for the ways in which upper crust Anglo-French society mixed social and policy issues, and the role that women played in the mix.
		Talleyrand is a tough brief in that regard-- the man writes so elegantly and sharply that mediocre writers just end up stringing together the bon mots-- not Cooper, whose own cleverness is on display, particularly in the descriptions of the Congress of Vienna.
		Duff Cooper writes with the confidence of a man who has led an interesting life himself.

		As John Julius Norwich - Duff Cooper's son - says in his Introduction, his father was a first-rate witness of just about 'every significant event from 1914 to 1950.' But his diaries were also, like Alan Clark's, confessionals about his numerous love affairs.
		If Duff Cooper's name has dimmed in the 50 years since his death, publication of these diaries will bring him to the fore once again.
		His family have long resisted publication - indeed Duff Cooper's nephew, the publisher Rupert Hart-Davis, was so shocked by the sexual revelations that he suggested to John Julius Norwich that it might be best for all concerned if they were burnt.

		The BBC didn't want to get involved in what they saw as a personal attack but were later ordered to by Duff Cooper, who at the time was, I believe, the Minister of Information.
		Cassandra and Duff Cooper knew that the speeches were completely innocuous (they were told so by the governors of the BBC, which had monitored the first two of the broadcasts) so they didn't publicise them; instead they resorted to innuendo and implied that PGW was "like" Lord Haw-Haw.
		He got back at Duff Cooper too - once when Gussie Fink-Nottle is copped (for wading in the Trafalgar Square fountain looking for newts -- after being "encouraged" to do so by Catsmeat Pirbright), he gives his name as "Alfred Duff Cooper".
