Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Originally published in 1939, this volume attempts to capture some
of the traditions of English rural life during a time of increasing
agricultural mechanisation. Through descriptions gathered from a
number of different authors, the reader is given the sense of rural
communities as being held together by a shared understanding of
these traditions, and of a shared heritage passed down through the
generations. In separating the cultural life of villages from an
increasingly rationalised system of production, modern farming
techniques are seen as creating fundamental changes in this
established existence. This fascinating book will be of value to
anyone with an interest in British history and agricultural
customs.
