Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dowager Countess and the American Girl Nor was it the most auspicious hour for Edith Joyce to have married a younger son, for the situation, always strained, was just now undergoing a particular tension, as the result of the curious will left by the late earl, Archie's father. His elder brother, Geoffrey, the present Earl of Mayhew, had never been a favorite with their father, and his extravagance had so reduced the old earl's income that he took a dying revenge against his son, and left all his personal property in trust for the first male heir of the Earl and Countess of May hew, leaving as little ready money as he could both to his wife, the dowager countess, and to his elder son. Only the entailed property, that which he could not possibly control, went to Geoffrey. To his second son, Archie, he left three thousand a year.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Chronicles of Downtown Abbey: A New Era is a perfect gift book for fans of the Emmy Award-winning series and feature film, inviting readers inside the third season. The Great War has ended, but Downton Abbey is far from peaceful... "Americans can't get enough of Downton Abbey," said The Boston Globe. As Season 3 of the award-winning TV series opens, it is 1920 and Downton Abbey is waking up to a world changed forever by World War I. New characters arrive and new intrigues thrive as the old social order is challenged by new expectations. In this new era, different family members abound (including Cora's American mother, played by Shirley MacLaine) and changed dynamics need to be resolved: Which branch of the family tree will Lord Grantham's first grandchild belong to? What will become of the servants, both old and new? The Chronicles of Downton Abbey, carefully pieced together at the heart and hearth of the ancestral home of the Crawleys, takes us deeper into the story of every important member of the Downton estate. This lavish, entirely new book from Jessica Fellowes focuses on each character individually, examining their motivations, their actions, and the inspirations behind them. An evocative combination of story, history, and behind-the-scenes drama, it will bring fans even closer to the secret, beating heart of the house.

Download or read book Lady Almina and the Real Downton Abbey written by The Countess of Carnarvon and published by Crown. This book was released on 2011-12-27 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The real-life inspiration and setting for the Emmy Award-winning Downton Abbey, Lady Almina and the Real Downton Abbey tells the story behind Highclere Castle and the life of one of its most famous inhabitants, Lady Almina, the 5th Countess of Carnarvon. Drawing on a rich store of materials from the archives of Highclere Castle, including diaries, letters, and photographs, the current Lady Carnarvon has written a transporting story of this fabled home on the brink of war. Much like her Masterpiece Classic counterpart, Lady Cora Crawley, Lady Almina was the daughter of a wealthy industrialist, Alfred de Rothschild, who married his daughter off at a young age, her dowry serving as the crucial link in the effort to preserve the Earl of Carnarvon's ancestral home. Throwing open the doors of Highclere Castle to tend to the wounded of World War I, Lady Almina distinguished herself as a brave and remarkable woman. This rich tale contrasts the splendor of Edwardian life in a great house against the backdrop of the First World War and offers an inspiring and revealing picture of the woman at the center of the history of Highclere Castle.
