Thomas Hardy celebrated the glorious county of Dorset through his
writings. Today our vision of Dorset is very much that fixed by
Hardy in novels ranging from Far From the Madding Crowd and The
Mayor of Casterbridge to Tess of the d'Urbervilles and Jude the
Obscure. Hurriedly produced in instalments for magazines, they were
then reworked by Hardy with care and finesse, and turned into world
classics. Steve Wallis revisits the Dorset heartland of Hardy's
Wessex, and illustrates the changes that have taken place using old
and new images. He charts Thomas Hardy's life and work through the
places he knew and the locations he immortalised, from his
birthplace at Stinsford, to his old age at Max Gate, with Swanage,
Sturminster Newton, Weymouth and Wimborne in between. Join the
author on this unique and nostalgic tour through time.
