Contents

  • The Rector of Broomhill in Devon had one small daughter, Perdita: and Perdita's dearest wish was to see the great Queen Elizabeth I one day. Against the background of quiet village and changing seasons, country fair and Christmas celebrations, this is a picture of country and family life throughout the sunny year which ended with the coming of Gloriana to Devon and the realisation of Perdita's dreams.
