Cumbria is a very varied county with coastal plains, river valleys,
the Pennine edge and the Lakeland fells. It has a strong sense of
cohesion and common ground. Farming in the county has improved over
the centuries, and yet this is a subject curiously under-discussed
in the existing literature. In this book, Dr David Johnson uses
documentary and contemporary sources to argue that there has been
visible improvement in Cumbria's farming. Starting with a
discussion of the region's geology, topography, climate and soils,
he gives a chronological account of the development of farming in
the region, ending with a discussion of the ways in which farming
in Cumbria has improved over time. This book will appeal to
agricultural historians, as well as those interested in rural life,
local residents and tourists.
