Excerpt from Talk at a Country House: Fact and Fiction The Squire, as his family and his neighbors called him, was past work, as he used to say, but not past the enjoyments of an old age spent in the home which he shared with his children and grandchildren. And as he loved his bit of Chaucer, he would apply to himself the description of the Clerk. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Fifty years ago, the future for country houses in Britain looked bleak. The Victoria & Albert Museum's exhibition The Destruction of the Country House, which opened in October 1974, charted the loss of over a thousand country houses in the preceding century. The makers of the exhibition warned that history could be "about to repeat itself" because of the threats besetting mansion properties, principally from higher taxation. Houses faced the prospect of having to be stripped of their collections and sold for use as offices, hotels, or hospitals, with their parks and gardens turned into golf clubs. Government might afford to save just a handful of the most significant of these places, working in tandem with charities such as the National Trust. The rest would be consigned to history. This book traces the history of country houses in Britain, from the Destruction exhibition to the present day. The wave of country house losses anticipated in 1974 never actually happened. Instead, over the next five decades Britain's country houses experienced a renaissance. Fiscal rules changed in the mid-1970s to make it easier for owners to hold on to their assets. Economic improvements in the 1980s and 1990s allowed many houses and estates to develop profitable commercial businesses. All of this was achieved only after dedicated campaigning from heritage organisations in support of the country house cause. The book argues that a new accord is needed today, to recognise and value the ongoing, if increasingly contested, contribution of country houses to British life and culture in the twenty-first century.

After the drama at Harry’s family cocktail party on Thursday and confessing my feelings for Noah on Friday, I’m looking forward to a weekend away with the boys. So after packing up my wellies, tweeds, and a fancy dress or two, we are off to the countryside! And everything seems perfect. Harry and I are closer than we’ve ever been. My relationship with Noah is finally progressing to more. The boys’ club is stronger than ever, and we get a weekend away with no parents! Except, well, it isn’t all that perfect. Because Harry’s parents still think we’re dating and sometimes I wonder if he does too. Harry still doesn’t know that Noah and I are kind of a couple. Helen is questioning my every move, not trusting that I’ll behave myself. My dad seems to have a man crush on Harry. And even though Noah and I have shared our feelings, he won’t share his body with me. I know we’re going to have the best time together, but I can’t help but think about how when the weekend is over, everything is going to change. After all, I never expected to wind up in Harry’s arms again, having him look at me like he still loves me. And I never expected to hear that Noah thinks I’m going to break his heart. It’s only one weekend, but a lot can change in just a few days.
