Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Near Fine jacket. Dovecote Press & University of Delaware Press, 1995. Crisp and unmarked, NF/NF. Full cloth binding. 375pp. Very nice jacket now in a new mylar cover. The publication of the diaries of successive generations of the Grove family is of considerable importance. Spanning more than a century, from 1809 to 1925, and described by one scholar as 'like a Jane Austen novel, but for real', they chart the rise of a Wiltshire/Dorset border family from county gentry to aristocratic Victorian grandees, before finally tracing the much steeper trajectory of the family's decline. First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. 8vo-8"-9" Tall.
