Melvyn Bragg's celebrated trilogy - 'The Hired Man', 'A Place in England', and 'Kingdom Come' - traces four generations of Tallentire history: from John in the rural Cumberland of 1898 to Douglas in the competitive and backbiting metropolis of the Seventies. From hired man to media man worlds have been bridged, but the old ideals of success, freedom and happiness seem ever elusive as each Tallentire must come to terms with private uncertainty and pain.
