THE OLD HOUSE A Generation of Lawyers

Softcover. No. 8 Bartletts Buildings, Holborn, in the City of London, together with some 20 other houses of the same date and appearance, was destroyed by enemy action. It was built in 1685, and this is a brief history of it and three generations of solicitors who inhabited it until its destruction in 1941. The house itself becomes a central character, embodying tradition and resilience as its occupants navigate personal triumphs and tragedies against the backdrop of a transforming England. Illus. 67pp. 12mo. card covers. Vg+ with no creasing to covers.
