Downton Shabby by Hopwood DePree

In 2013, Hopwood Dupree began, with the help of Bob and Geoff, to restore his ancestral castle near Manchester, England. Many people, some famous and some local with connections to Hopwood Hall, would come to help. Through difficult and sometimes hysterical experiences, Hopwood succeeds in assuring that future generations will be able to see the hall’s history and grandeur. The book is delightful.
