Although controversial in the late 1930s because of the associations of the ‘Cliveden Set’ with the disastrous appeasement policy, there is little evidence of any substance to indicate that the ‘set’ actually made British foreign policy. See, for example, Anthony Masters, Nancy Astor: A Biography (London: McGraw-Hill, 1981); Christopher Sykes, Nancy: The Life of Lady Astor (London: Collins, 1972); and Maurice Collins, Nancy Astor: An Informal Biography (London: Faber & Faber, 1960).

Clement Jones was Secretary to the British Empire delegation at the Paris Peace Conference, 1919; Robert Cecil was Assistant Secretary for Foreign Affairs, 1918, Lord Privy Seal, 1923–24, and President of the League of Nations Union, 1923–45. Of the role of Curtis, Jones wrote: ‘There was only one founder of Chatham House – his name was Lionel Curtis’ (Chatham House Archives (CHA) 2/1/2a. p. 7). Curtis represented the Colonial Office in the League of Nations section of the Paris Peace Conference.
