What a lovely book it looks..

It is very good of you to try so hard to reunite the book with the family..

What about if no one comes forward would your National Archives be interested or a chapter of a local history group? What a great view on history it must be!

What about seeing if it could be published. Remember the success of Country Diary of A Victorian Lady
