[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here's a book I found about Highclere castle, the "real" Downton Abbey: Lady Catherine, the Earl, and the Real Downton Abbey http://www.amazon.com/Lady-Catherine-Earl-Downton-Abbey/dp/0385344961/ref=sr_1_7?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1457379981&sr=1-7&keywords=history+english+landed+gentry The great English houses were established well before 1912, when the first episode of Downton Abbey took place. An interesting trivia/fact about Highclere is that the one of the Canarvons funded Howard Carter's Egyptian expeditions. Howard Carter discovered King Tut's tomb. [/quote] OP here, I read one, that hoping it would fit the bill, but it wasn't about the actual house and social mores, etc. as much as I had hoped. More about the Egyptian expeditions themselves.[/quote]
