Top 10 Downton Abbey Books



OK guys... you might not admit to your buddies that you watch Downton Abbey. But anecdotal evidence shows a lot of men are watching this hit BBC show about post-Victorian England.  Some men on my FaceBook feed admit to watching, too.  I watch it with my wife.  I haven't come across viewership reports for confirmation, but I'm  pretty sure a lot of other men are watching Downton Abbey, too.  So I'm ready to post my list of the best Downton Abbey books on this "men's" blog.
