Greg Finch’s new account of the first three Sir William Blacketts, based on extensive new research, dispels the gentle myths surrounding the family to reveal a vivid story of dramatic rise from modest origins, the opening up of the regional lead industry, the creation and operation of a huge business and the crises that followed during a turbulent century of conflict and progress. It will be available from Tyne Bridge Publishing from late 2021.
