Kyd does not seem to have been aware of these earlier books. The anonymous author mentions Sheppard's book but dismisses it claiming that it "extends not to the fortieth part of the matters relating to Corporations v. He is correct; his book is much more extensive than Sheppard's and is more an analytical treatise than a handbook. This was clearly the author's ambition: "I have not only shewed the nature of Corpora. unknown‎

‎A PROSPECT OF ASHRIDGE.‎

‎Phillimore London 1980. 262 pp 8vo 8 11/16" H hard cover in dust jacket. ISBN 0850333601 Colour and b&w plates. "Founded as the College of Bonhommes an order of Augustinian canons in 1283 Ashridge is again a College today housing the world-renowned Management Co llege so that after 700 years the wheel has turned full circle. After the monastic period Henry VIII used Ashridge as an occasional residence for his children when it provided a backcloth to the uncertainties of their upbringing. The p r o p e r t y p assed to the Princess Elizabeth at her father's death and during Mary's reign must have been the scene of both drama and danger. After its period as a royal residence the Egerton family Earls and Dukes of Bridgewater lived at Ash ri dg e fo r se ve r al generations among them Sir Thomas Lord Chancellor to James I the 3rd Duke known as 'the Canal Duke' and the 7th Earl who replaced the crumbling monastic buildings with the present fabric. The latter's controversial wil l l ed to th e est ate p ass ing to the earls Brownlow. Later under the 3rd Earl and his beautiful Countess Adelaide Ashridge achieved an elegance of great distinction. After more than three centuries as a home the estate was sold in the 192 0s a nd bec ame an edu cati ona l fo undation first as Bonar Law College and then as the present Management College. This vivid and readable account is the first full-length study of the estate for over 150 years; and through his extensive use of cont emp orar y re cor ds an d som e ne w arc hival material the author's prospect of Ashridge has become more than purely local history. Personalities are brought to life against the background of the building in a way that will appeal to a wide circle of reade rs. A pi ece of Chilt ern h istory that often touches on national affairs this work will be welcomed by many who know and use the Ashridge of today." Minor wrinkle at bottom of spine tiny faint stain on fore-edge of textblock faint w ater mark a t bo ttom corner of fron t boar d. Dus t jacket has light edge wrinkling - mainly at top/bottom of spine and flap-folds minor rubbing. Very Good/Very Good. Phillimore, London, 1980. hardcover‎
