A review by sarahtokar
Lady Catherine, the Earl, and the Real Downton Abbey by Fiona Carnarvon

informative reflective medium-paced

3.0

I liked this book bc I have met the author and toured the home.  Also LOVED Downtown Abbey, and this real life story echoes that show's characters/events. (Lots of aristocrats with titles and drama and money troubles.).  I liked the book best when it focused on the WWII years.  The author does a good job of not over-romanticizing her husband's family (being honest about their failed loved affairs and other issues).  I listened to this book on audio.
