Book excerpt: A perfect gift for Downton Abbey fans, this book presents a lavish look at the real world--both the secret history and the behind-the-scenes drama--of the spellbinding Emmy Award-winning Masterpiece TV series that's now a feature film. April 1912. The sun is rising behind Downton Abbey, a great and splendid house in a great and splendid park. So secure does it appear that it seems as if the way it represents will last for another thousand years. It won't.

On the eve of Season 2 of the TV presentation, this gorgeous book--illustrated with sketches and research from the production team, as well as on-set photographs from both seasons--takes us even deeper into that world, with fresh insights into the story and characters as well as the social history.
Book Synopsis Victorians at Home and Away by : Janet Phillips
Download or read book Victorians at Home and Away written by Janet Phillips and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-07-01 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1978, this book explores everyday Victorian likes and dislikes, manners, fashions, ideals and illusions. It discusses their changing attitudes to women, children, the poor, the common soldier and their country. It explains the rise and fall of home entertainment, the growth of soccer, racing and cricket to national sports, the rise of public schools and new professions as well as the appeal of missionary work. It is argued that all this happened not because the Victorians were fools, hypocrites or villains, but because they sensibly adapted themselves to peculiar and novel circumstances. This title will be of interest to students of history.

Book Synopsis The English Country House by : Michael Hall
Download or read book The English Country House written by Michael Hall and published by White Lion Publishing. This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since Country Life was founded in 1897, every issue of the magazine has featured a scholarly and authoritative article on a country house, each one illustrated with specially commissioned photographs. The result is an unrivalled archive of superb photographs which form an architectural survey of the exteriors and interiors, furniture and furnishings, decoration and design of some of the finest houses and gardens in the British Isles. The beautiful duotone images, many published here for the first time, along with Michael Hall's erudite and illuminating text, offer a unique and vivid insight into what has become known as the golden age of the English country house -- an era of late-Victorian and Edwardian opulence, a carefree society so delightfully captured in the works of P.G. Wodehouse. But in many respects, this golden age proved to be no more than an Indian summer. The loss of the men folk during the Second World War, coupled with the crippling death duties and the increasing difficulties in attracting servants, pointed towards a bleak future for many families. Land and contents were sold off and the houses, were now unwanted, often abandoned to decay. Of those houses that managed to survive the ravages of the First World War, many faced devastation in the Second: Requisitioned for the duration by the armed forces, numerous houses were returned to their owners beyond repair, falling prey to architectural salvagers and demolition. While a few houses have survived unscathed and others have been sympathetically restored, many are either decaying or have vanished forever. The Country Life archive thus provides not only a nostalgic glimpse of a bygone era, but also, for many houses,the only substantial record of their original appearance. From the Baroque magnificence

Book Synopsis House Histories for Beginners by : Colin Style
Download or read book House Histories for Beginners written by Colin Style and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular television programmes highlight the satisfaction that can be gained from investigating the history of houses, and there is always plenty of interest in the subject, with archives becoming ever more accessible with access to the internet. As the subject covers a broad field, the authors have set out to include advice on those aspects that usually apply to a project and others that will be of particular use for beginners. The reader is guided through every stage of research, from the first exploration of the archives to the completion of the task. Suggestions are also included on how to present the findings – a house history makes a very attractive gift. The authors describe how to deduce the age of a property (it is very seldom directly recorded when a house was built) and characteristics of research on particular types of property – such as cottages, manor houses, inns, mills, former church properties, and farms – are discussed. In one example, research demonstrated that a farm was likely to have been a Domesday manor – a fascinating discovery achieved using records accessible to any beginner.
