Of interest is the light it the book throws on the background of Thomas Hardy?s novels. One of the ?lost? names is Turberville Stoke which took its distinctive name from the Turbervilles, the well-known Dorset family of which we shall find better evidence in connexion with Winterborne Muston, Bryants Puddle and Melbury Sampford.
