At the end of the 1960s, Kenneth Allsop, a famous television
presenter and literary man-about-town, left London and settled amid
the sunken lanes, ancient forests and chalk streams of west Dorset.
He was at his very happiest here. He thought it the loveliest place
on earth, and for three years he devoted a weekly newspaper column
to his day-to-day life at the mill, brimming with humor and delight
for the wildlife which shared his home. In the Country is not
rustic or romantic. It is never unrealistic about agricultural
modernisation and social change in the countryside. Yet, steeped
with a deep sense of the past, Kenneth Allsop's writing speaks in
defense of the natural world and stands firmly against the
unchecked exploitation of the land. First published 1972 by Hamish
Hamilton.
