Horn, Pamela2015
Books, Manuscripts
This title tells of the real lives of Britain's aristocratic families in a time of rapid change. When the cataclysm of the First World War impacted on British society, it particularly affected the landed classes, with their long military tradition. Country houses, as in a variety of popular TV dramas, were turned into military hospitals and convalescent homes, while many of the menfolk were killed or badly injured in the hostilities.
