A vivid account of Christmas in an Edwardian country house. This reissue of the 1952 classic Treasure on Earth is a heart-warming Christmas story from a bygone era. Phyllis Sandeman, who was brought up at Lyme, recalls the celebrations, the theatricals, the relationships between family and servants, and her own childhood hopes and fears. Containing hand-drawn illustrations from Phyllis herself, it shows opulent scenes of the house's architecture, the bustling kitchen during Christmas, as well as sketches of it's inhabitants, including the family dog.
