Peacocks in paradise: The story of a house - its owners and the Elysium they established there, in the mountains of Wales, in the 18th century - Softcover
This is a biography of an 18th-century country house and of the man who tamed the wild hills of west Wales to create a Roman idyll there. We live, said Thomas Johnes of Hafod, like peacocks in paradise. This serene image was on the surface only, as his life was marked by excess of all kinds.
