Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Great Governing Families of England, Vol. 2 of 2 The Grenvilles are country squires, who for five hundred years vegetated on slowly increasing estates in Buckinghamshire, then acquired almost by accident an earldom, then gave a connection, one William Pitt, a heavy annuity; turned politicians; exhibited singular capacity for that profession, - which they worked like a profession, caring for themselves as well as the country, - and rose in two generations to the very top of English society. From country gentlemen they became earls at a step, and then marquesses and dukes; but, unlike most men who have achieved this kind of advancement, they really were gentlemen.
