ABOUT
Surveys the dukes of Great Britain in their prime, chiefly in the 18th and 19th centuries.
Dukes were expected to bring something extra to the grand manner, writes E.S. Turner, something which unmistakably conveyed that here was a man who owned Belgravia or Eastbourne or Ben Lomond. He offers an anecdote led study of godhead, eccentricity, noblesse oblige, self-indulgence and landlordism; but his eye for the outrageous does not prevent him from paying tribute to those dukes to whom humanity has been much indebted.
Illustrated with monochrome images.
