Noble Desires: The History of the Brisco family of Crofton Hall, Cumberland (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798397875622)

Conquest to plague, bloody battles, life at the heart of Henry VIII's court, epic tales of treason and commerce, a monarch's mistress and a court case or two, travel through time on this tour charting the life of some of the characters that made the Brisco family and their relations a very eccentric and scandalous bunch. Despite the little known family never achieving great political success on a national level, many of the families characters were close to historic figures and involved in tales that shape the culture and history of Britain. A whirlwind ride from character to character from the age of Vikings to the post war Downton-esque decay of one of Cumbria's finest and oldest estates.
