Slight shelf wear to top edge of D/J. In this new annual the author goes - like Mr. Pickwick - in search of the life, lore and history of our countryside. His journey takes him to the nature researve of Nrownsea Island; to a new museum of rural life near Yeovil; to St. Austell, where the china-clay spoil heaps have been landscaped and an open-air museum of special interest to industrial archaeologists is taking shape; to the Long Ashton Research Station at Bristol; and to a village in Somerset where, 100 years ago, a curious community which claimed to have abolished sin established themselves in the manor-house. This book speaks with the authentic voice of rural England. It will give a new insight to those already living in the West Country, and must fascinate everyone interested in natural history, dialect, rural crafts and country customs. Illustrated. 108 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
