The Dream Kingdom

1908 – Edwardian period; Aviation

In the height of Edwardian splendour, Jessie and Violet share a sparkling London debut. At Morland Place, Teddy’s business is expanding and he brings home a new wife, to the anxiety of his sister Henrietta who knows there can’t be two mistresses of the house. England is a land of confidence and opportunity but below the surface troubles are stirring. The death of the King brings to a head the constitutional crisis, while abroad the flexing of Russian and German might are an ominous sign of the dangers that lie ahead.
