No family in the past century---excepting per-
haps the Forsytes--has been so dramatically
exposed to public stare as the Bellamys of
Eaton Place. Drawing from the diaries of
Richard Bellamy, the personal letters of Lady
Marjorie, the Southwold Papers in the British
Museum, as well as his own friendship with
James Bellamy and his conversations with
Mrs. Elizabeth (Bellamy) Wallace shortly be-
fore her recent death in New York City, John
Pearson has written a sensitive and finely de-
tailed portrait of this patrician English family.
The Bellamys could not have anticipated
the extraordinary interest that their lives have
generated in Europe and America through the
award-winning television series "Upstairs,
Downstairs." Here, Mr. Pearson chronicles
the Bellamys complex, stormy, and passionate
lives during the years between 1884 and
1929, when they reigned at 165 Eaton Place.
An exciting and intriguing narrative in its
own right, THE BELLAMY SAGA is also a
tribute to the surviving relatives and friends
who consented--although some of them did
so reluctantly--to relinquish much of the pri-
vacy they cherish.
