Description
|
|
|
|
"Punctuality, organization, cleanliness. If you master these," assures Stanley Ager, former butler to the third Lord St. Levan, "everything else should fall into place." The Butler's Guide was an essential resource for the historical advisor to the BBC/Masterpiece series Downton Abbey, who here provides a foreword. To produce his elegant illustrated manual, Ager teamed with his former employer's granddaughter, "Miss Fiona" St. Aubyn, whom he watched grow up in the halls of St. Michael's Mount (Lord St. Levan's castle atop a Cornish island, now part of Britain's National Trust). The result is both a practical manual for any household and an unexpectedly delightful view into the life of a manor house.
