Quotes [regarding Edwardian society] Mister Edgar - the Butler : Without truth, society is sick, and it can't really survive. User reviews 13 Review. Top review. Absolutely wonderful experience.

And other family members are more unsettled by the Edwardian lifestyle than Sir John who also concedes that he's putting aside his 21st-century moral code to host hunting parties.
