Bryon and Newstead: The Aristocrat and the Abbey
I got this from the library but would love to buy a copy for my own shelves as it's a great one to delve into. The nitty-gritty of life at Newstead Abbey before and during the poet's residence is thoroughly explored in this book. I thoroughly enjoyed it in all its minutiae, well researched by a great authority on local social history.
