ADRIAN TINNISWOOD, OBE
Distinguished British historian and author

The Long Weekend: Life in the English Country House, 1918-1939

Drawing on thousands of memoirs, unpublished letters and diaries, and the eye-witness testimonies of belted earls and bibulous butlers, historian Adrian Tinniswood brings the stately homes of England to life as never before, opening the door onto a world half-remembered, glamorous, shameful at times, and forever wrapped in myth.
