The Edwardian country house by Juliet Gardiner (Second Hand)

A richly illustrated social history exploring life inside an Edwardian country house at the height of its elegance. Juliet Gardiner reconstructs the world of 1910 through diaries, letters, household manuals, and the lived experiences of both the family and their servants. The book examines the rituals of the social season, domestic routines, lavish entertainments, and the strict hierarchies that shaped daily life. It’s an engaging companion to the Channel 4 historical series, offering a vivid portrait of privilege, labour, and the final years before the First World War transformed British society.
