This jaunty magnificent book tells the history of Britain just as much as it does of one family * Daily Express * A balanced look at a traditional tale of aristocratic power and prestige -- Hallie Rubenhold * BBC History Magazine * A seriously comfortable armchair, a magnificent old duffer of a book that deftly knits together a national story into the fabric of a family drama. It does this with all the warmth and affection for history that mark out a former statesman and a first-class storyteller -- Ian Kelly * The Times * Jostling with the eccentric and engaging characters from a grand family, Hattersley deftly tells a jaunty story about Britishness through the ages -- Kathryn Hughes * Mail on Sunday * A vivid read, crowded with characters and colour -- Lucy Lethbridge * Observer *
