Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - H. J. Massingham (1888-1952) was renowned as a prolific writer on matters relating to the British countryside. In this volume, which was originally published in 1939, Massingham provides a rich and detailed description of traditional agricultural husbandry and the rural crafts inseparable from it. Written in consultation with various practitioners of these crafts, the text reveals a subtle interrelationship between man and nature based on centuries-old processes. Rather than taking a nostalgic approach to these processes, Massingham regards them as the sensible alternative to the 'scientific agriculture' of mechanised farming.

This is a fascinating volume that will be of value to anyone with an interest in British agriculture, traditional crafts, and the history of land use. Hennell, Thomas (illustrator).…
