Before Downton Abbey, there was Abingdon Pryory, the elegant country home of the Grevilles—a titled English family who, along with their servants, see their world turned upside down when England goes to war. Once their well-kept lawns and whirling social seasons give way to the horrors of World War I, no one, upstairs or downstairs, is left untouched. For fans of sweeping historical fiction, the reissue of Phillip Rock's New York Times bestseller The Passing Bells is a breathtaking family saga not to be missed.

      Originally published during the 1970s, at the height of Upstairs Downstairs mania, Rock's trilogy follows the wealthy Greville family as they navigate the changes wrought by the war. As with Downton Abbey, it's a family saga featuring plenty of drama; unlike Downton Abbey, the portrayal of the horrors of World War I is quite detailed and graphic. The full trilogy spans the years from 1914 through the 1930s.
