“The resulting volume is not only a delight to read but provides real insight into the way that a heterogeneous late-Hanoverian/Victorian country estate could be effectively managed against a highly fluid social, financial and political landscape. … this volume will appeal across the board, from enthusiastic amateurs to serious scholars of rural history, social relations and the landed aristocracy. … it breaks genuinely new ground.” (Peter Jones, Family & Community History, Vol. 22 (3), October, 2019)
