Green cloth, gilt letters on spine, gilt motif on front cover, 260 pp., 36 BW figures, 15+ BW plates. A detailed and illustrated history of Sulgrave Manor in Northamptonshire, England: the home of George Washington's ancestors. "After the departure of the Washingtons in 1659, Sulgrave Manor fell upon evil days, and eventually 'degenerated into a common farm-house.'" It wasn't until 1914 that a group of British subscribers bought the home and began to bring it back to life, through eventual historic renovation. A nice piece of Washingtoniana. G (No dj, owner's bookplate inside front cover; cover has faded in spots, but book is beautifully intact and pages are clean.).
