It is wonderful to have known a place where a man's word is his bond, where a good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, where loving kindness and tender mercy is the normal way to treat people, where greed and conceit receive the ridicule they deserve, where there is time for music and art, wit and humour." - Foreword. xviii, 325 glossy pages. Bibliography. Generously illustrated with black and white reproductions of archival photos plus recent colour photos. Includes 150 pages of family and personal biographies. Map endpapers document historic land owners. Clean, bright and unmarked with negligible wear to forest green faux leather decorated in gilt.
