"Memories of an Old Etonian, 1860-1912" by G. Greville Moore is a memoir written in the early 20th century. The book centers on the author's reminiscences of his youth, his schooling at Eton, family connections, and the cultured milieu of Anglo-European society from the mid-Victorian era through the dawn of the 20th century. Moore’s narrative combines historical events, intimate family stories, and vivid sketches of notable figures and daily life, offering readers a personal perspective on a vanished world of privilege, travel, and tradition. The opening of the memoir immerses the reader in Moore’s early childhood memories in Germany—especially at Frankfurt and Homburg—where he describes attending courtly celebrations, remarkable social encounters, and scenes from aristocratic life through his young, impressionable eyes. Through a blend of descriptive detail and innocent curiosity, Moore recalls colorful events such as royal birthday festivities, his interactions with luminaries like Thackeray, amusing social snubs, and glimpses of royalty and high society. These vignettes, extending to anecdotes about his schooling in Frankfurt, family acquaintances, and adventures in the countryside, establish the tone of affectionate nostalgia and set the stage for the chronicle of Moore’s formative years among the upper echelons of European and British society.
