With a forward “written by” Charles Carson, the head butler in the show, this fun book describes what it takes to be a member of Downton’s downstairs staff – with sections titled “Lady’s Maid: Particular Advice for Female Servants on Posture & Carriage” or “Footman: First Aid, Medicinal Drinks & Curatives.”

“Lord and Lady Grantham take great pride in their estate, and servants are expected to show that same pride when carrying out their work because they are part of the estate and its ambassadors among servants from other households,” reads the Introduction.
