Money and the World of Thomas Coke, Earl of Leicester

What was life on a great aristocratic estate such as Thomas Coke's Holkham in Norfolk like? Where did the money come from? How does an up and coming young aristocrat make his way in the often murky world of royal and political circles? Using the extraordinary riches of the Holkham archives, D.P. Mortlock recreates in stunning detail the lives of the great and the little people of eighteenth-century England. From the carefully detailed marriage settlement arranged in 1718 when Coke married Lady Margaret Tufton, to the shilling which Coke had to borrow from a footman in an emergency, the financial dealings were recorded in fascinating detail, as were the lives of the people of the age.

“Hurt books” are books that have been returned to the publisher/distributor but are deemed to be in “unsaleable” condition. This generally means that there may be some damage to the cover of the book, or that there is a problem of that type. It doesn’t mean that the book is misbound or missing pages – just that the book is not in pristine-enough condition to be sent to a book retailer. It offers you the chance to buy excellent, current titles at a large percentage off regular retail prices. Any noticeable damage on the book or problems will be listed above in the description - if it is not listed then please assume the book is in good condition, with no visible problems.
