Reader's note

This beautiful book will add some real vintage charm to your library and also make you think about the British class system. Seldons have occupied the Manor of Doddington for four hundred years. By the 1950s the force of change is beginning to overwhelm them. A new social order is about to supplant theirs: at their very gate the children of Fenton their gardener are growing up, tough, ambitious, intelligent, socialist. A chapter of English history is coming to an end. Against this background of change, Susan Seldon comes home from school to an Indian Summer of country life - hunting, shooting, points-to-points - watching her parents retreating into the past as the Manor and its woods crumble about them, and one after another the bastions of the old order are swept away. Will Susan be able to meet the challenges of the modern world? Find out in this quintessentially English story.
