Editorial Reviews
Book Description
How did country house owners pass the time in the days before television and telephone? And how did their servants amuse themselves in the few hours of leisure they were allowed? The answers are many, various, and interesting, from music-making and amateur theatricals to the genteel pastime of watercolor painting.
