There are so many threads of real life shown in the upstairs and downstairs characters that I felt drawn in immediately. My grandparents would have been of this generation in the USA but much poorer and struggling every day to make it through. I am impressed by the three hardback books by Julian and Jessica Fellowes. All are well written, the photography is beautiful and a follower of the series will love seeing the scenes once again. I felt so left out of the plot that I signed up for desertcart Prime and watched every Season except 5, which isn't available yet in that venue. I read somewhere that Dame Maggie Smith will perform her last Downton for next Season. She is absolutely a class act and I will miss her but we all must move on. If this series could last through the WWII it would be wonderful. The kindnesses and quality of behavior and actions portrayed during this time frame, 1912 to 1924 should make us all realize what human civilization has lost. Where is the modesty, sincerity, steadfastness, honesty, reliability today? Few and far between, I fear. I want to thank the creators, writers, production crew, actors and actresses and all others associated with Downton for a job more than well done.....an excellent production that no other will exceed any time soon, or ever. Review: Downton fans, make a space on that bookshelf for this volume. - A beautiful book for a Downton fan, or a way to introduce someone into the world of Downton. The book is filled with beautiful pictures from the series and accompanying material pertinent to the events in the photos. We gain more insight into lives of our favorite aristocrat family and the times that the drama is set in. I admit that I have only been able to skim parts of the book at this time, but that is enough to remind me why I love this drama and all of the factors that it explores. I am so impressed by the richness of the photographs that are part of this volume. A true feast for the eyes. I am fascinated by the fashion changes over the years and the photos of our ladies fashions allow for careful study of patterns, accessories,etc. and all of the pieces of the ensemble. So amazing to study. This book is a "must" for the library of a Downton fan. Another piece of the family's life in our collection. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #408,346 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #88 in Television Dramas #3,578 in Encyclopedias & Subject Guides #28,888 in Arts & Photography (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (548) | | Dimensions | 7.9 x 1.13 x 9.94 inches | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 1250065380 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1250065384 | | Item Weight | 2.5 pounds | | Language | English | | Part of series | The World of Downton Abbey | | Print length | 320 pages | | Publication date | October 28, 2014 | | Publisher | St. Martin's Press | ## Images ![A Year in the Life of Downton Abbey: Seasonal Celebrations, Traditions, and Recipes (The World of Downton Abbey) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91aT1VFSXFL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highest Quality and most Excellent series *by A***A on March 23, 2015* I am a later comer to Downton Abbey having just watched the Series 5 January 2015.

I now have started quite a collection of Downton books and this one, I think, is really beautiful. The only complaint, if you want to call it that, is that some of the printing seems to be very light in color, so you can't read by candlelight! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/8030345-a-year-in-the-life-of-downton-abbey-seasonal-celebrations](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/8030345-a-year-in-the-life-of-downton-abbey-seasonal-celebrations) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-11*
