Collated complete. A vivid portrait of the rural past of Blaxhall, a remote Suffolk village, from a time before mechanization and industrialisation changed the nature of farming. Evans seeks out those who recall the nineteenth-century customs, crafts, dialects, tools, tales and rural beliefs which had endured from the time of Chaucer. Written by George Ewart Evans, a Welsh-born schoolteacher, writer and folklorist who became a dedicated collector of oral history and oral tradition in the East Anglian countryside. Evans produced eleven books of collections of these materials. Illustrated by David William Gentleman, an English artist who studied art and painting at the Royal College of Art under Edward Bawden and John Nash.
