Excellent perspective, Delories...   Written by Elizabeth Sycamore (9/18/2006 9:27 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Servants not as lavish as they seem, penned by Delories

I myself have fallen into this trap of comparing Regency life to ours in the present day. Things were certainly very different from what we might consider "normal".

Also, it would be interesting to know how many servants the Dashwoods had at Norland, compared to being reduced to only 3.
