A History of the House of Percy: From the Earliest Times Down to the Present Century V2 is a comprehensive account of the Percy family, one of the most prominent and powerful noble families in England. Written by Gerald Brenan, this book covers the history of the Percy family from their origins in the 11th century to the 19th century. The book explores the family's rise to power, their involvement in major historical events such as the Wars of the Roses and the English Civil War, and their contributions to the cultural and political life of England. It also delves into the personal lives of key members of the family, including their marriages, alliances, and rivalries. This second volume of the book provides a continuation of the family's history, including their role in the Jacobite uprising and their decline in power in the 18th century. Overall, A History of the House of Percy is a fascinating and detailed account of one of England's most influential families and their impact on the country's history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
