Peter Brears excellent, lavishly illustrated, work on Temple Newsam and Temple Hirst places them both back in the history of Yorkshire and the nation. The book presents a unique picture of of the rise and fall of Thomas, Lord Darcy, a favourite of Henry VIII, who occupied an important place in the history of early Tudor England.
Peter’s characteristic paintings and sketches which illustrate the book, re-creating lost scenes, are simply outstanding.
