Chronicles of Downton Abbey 8377
The Chronicles of Downtown Abbey: A New Era is a perfect gift book for fans of the Emmy Award-winning series and feature film, inviting readers inside the third season.
The Great War has ended, but Downton Abbey is far from peaceful…
“Americans can’t get enough of Downton Abbey,” said The Boston Globe. As Season 3 of the award-winning TV series opens, it is 1920 and Downton Abbey is waking up to a world changed forever by World War I. New characters arrive and new intrigues thrive as the old social order is challenged by new expectations.
In this new era, different family members abound (including Cora’s American mother, played by Shirley MacLaine) and changed dynamics need to be resolved: Which branch of the family tree will Lord Grantham’s first grandchild belong to? What will become of the servants, both old and new?
The Chronicles of Downton Abbey, carefully pieced together at the heart and hearth of the ancestral home of the Crawleys, takes us deeper into the story of every important member of the Downton estate. This lavish, entirely new book from Jessica Fellowes focuses on each character individually, examining their motivations, their actions, and the inspirations behind them. An evocative combination of story, history, and behind-the-scenes drama, it will bring fans even closer to the secret, beating heart of the house.
Reviews:
‘Beautifully illustrated book, giving colorful backgrounds of all our beloved characters. I sent one as a gift, and treated myself to one. I’m very pleased!!’ – Amazon review
‘Yes, I’m in love with Downton Abbey and yes I bought this for myself because I have the other book.
This book was much better than the first book. This book has information about each of the characters individually up through about the middle of the third season. There is even a section about Mrs. Isidore Levinson (Martha – Cora’s mother) who isn’t introduced until season 3.
I loved this book. Yes, it had many photos which were great. It also had a lot of background information about each of the characters and the time periods explaining why some of the characters may have acted certain ways.
There are interviews with each of the actors which then give a little more information about the characters on screen which we may not have know about. For example, Joanne Froggett’s (Anna) perspective on what Anna’s upbringing must have been like to make her such a level-headed and confident person, and yet very protective and closed off about her past.
This book was wonderful. I read it in just over a day. Anyone who enjoys the series and wants to know more about the characters and the time period, this is for you.‘ – Amazon review
