English country life at the hands of a master

A tongue in cheek, close-up look at the manners and mores of country life in England in the '30s. A modern-day Jane Austin, nothing much happens in any of her books, other than a marriage or christening. Sly, humourous and wittily observed - a perfect intro to the world of Barsetshire.
