The Big House in Ireland by Valerie Pakenham
Written about by novelists and poets, the "Big House" has been a part of the Irish landscape for over 400 year. This anthology portrays life in the big house in a chronological structure, the aim being to create a documentary history, good or bad, of the role of the Big House in Ireland.
