Books, Maps & Other Resources Buckinghamshire, England Genealogy & History More resources for this county (shire) | More English resources sorted by county/topic BOOK - Buckinghamshire (England) By: Ian F.W. Beckett 
Buckinghamshire is one of the smallest English counties but between the Thames in the south and the Ouse in the north there lies a rich variety of landscape to be appreciated, from the wide pastures of the Vale of Aylesbury to the chalk escarpment of the Chilterns. Disraeli once said 'this part of England is history' and there are many reminders of national figures such as Hampden and Disraeli himself, of preachers such as Penn, and of poets such as Cowper, Gray and Milton. There are the great houses of the Grenvilles and the Rothschilds. Buckinghamshire's churches include some of the national importance while it also has sites of great interest to the industrial archaeologist. To all these attractions, this volume is an indispensible guide.
