  This illustrated history of the development of British society looks particularly at the properties of the National Trust and the National Trust for Scotland. These include Avebury in Wiltshire, Fountains Abbey in Yorkshire and Kellie Castle in Fife. The text includes cameo pieces on life at Chedworth Roman Villa in Gloucestershire, monasticism at Mount Grace Priory and the medieval diet, while maps help convey historical and archaeological information with clarity.
