History of this somewhat remote district & village, perhaps best-known as the seat of the influential Balfour family. The author was minister of Whittingehame; Lady Frances Balfour provides a foreword.

CONDITION
A good first edition. The dust jacket remains unclipped and in good condition with light signs of age and with a couple of chips from the edges plus a couple of small closed tears. Boards and spine are good. Endpapers good. No writing or names. Pages clean throughout. Overall a very good copy.
