Sobre este artículo
New York: The Macmillan Company, 1933. Hardcover. G (No dj, owner's bookplate inside front cover; cover has faded in spots, but book is beautifully intact and pages are clean.). Green cloth, gilt letters on spine, gilt motif on front cover, 260 pp., 36 BW figures, 15+ BW plates. A detailed and illustrated history of Sulgrave Manor in Northamptonshire, England: the home of George Washington's ancestors. "After the departure of the Washingtons in 1659, Sulgrave Manor fell upon evil days, and eventually 'degenerated into a common farm-house.'" It wasn't until 1914 that a group of British subscribers bought the home and began to bring it back to life, through eventual historic renovation. A nice piece of Washingtoniana.
