PLF got by on charm and competence and the kind of good looks that as someone said, made him one of the few men in Europe entitled to complain about being undersold when Dirk Bogarde was cast to play him. He managed to get across most of Central Europe on a chain of letters of introduction to the next schloss-owner along. Probably along the lines of "This is a charming chap who knows his cutlery and his Latin poets. You can trust with your horse but possibly not your daughter. Lock him in your library if necessary, he will enjoy it almost as much."
