Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensively researched exploration of the history of Chatsworth House and the family that has called it home for generations: the Dukes of Devonshire. Set against the backdrop of the Peak District, it details the creation of the palace and its grounds and explores the historical significance of the Devonshire family within British history. From the building and rebuilding of Chatsworth to its emergence as a Palace of Art, from the Devonshire family's role in the Civil Wars to their close association with figures like Thomas Hobbes and Charles Cotton, the work of the author brings to life the fascinating history of the house and its noble owners. The book is generously illustrated with engravings and photographs, showcasing the grandeur of Chatsworth and its exquisite interiors. At once a social and architectural history, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of great British houses and the families who have shaped them.
