This book records English country life at a time when farming and rural occupations were closely entwined, dependant on each other for their economic survival. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing many of these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
