Autobiography of a smug British gentleman from the age of Downton Abbey. Recounts, in evocative detail, a life in the late 19th century and early 20th century among the better sort unburden by the social evolution experienced by his fictional contemporaries at Downton. Includes detailed accounts of gentlemanly sports, tiresome distinguished relations, conservative politics, and preening soldiering, tales occasionally seasoned with reserved contempt for rabble such as the Catholics in Ulster. Blue cloth, 311 pages, illustrated.
