William Cavendish, the father of the first Earl, dissolved
monasteries for Henry VIII. Bess, his second wife, was
gaoler-companion to Mary Queen of Scots during her long
imprisonment in England. Arbella Stuart, their granddaughter, was a
heartbeat away from the throne of England and their grandson, the
Lord General of the North, fought to save the crown for Charles I.
With the help of previously unpublished material from the
Chatsworth archives, The Devonshires reveals how the dynasty made
and lost fortunes, fought and fornicated, built great houses,
patronised the arts and pioneered the railways, made great
scientific discoveries, and, in the end, came to terms with
changing times.
