Secrets, skeletons and pedigrees : The extraordinary Satterthwaite sisters Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This intriguing book is really a detective story, revealing what turned out to be a most unusual cast of characters and some eyebrow-raising family secrets.

It is a story of wealth and privilege, unhealthily close family connections, and pedigrees of both the human and canine varieties.

Centre stage are three eccentric, quintessentially English sisters - Letitia, Maud and Mary - whose story vividly captures a way of life that no longer exists.

Spanning counties, grand houses and centuries,William M.

Hartley draws on oral and archival sources to give us a fascinating glimpse inside `a most singular household' which adds greatly to the social history of both the North West and Great Britain.
