Synopsis

This pioneering study of agricultural history in Wiltshire from the point of view of the labourer, rather than that of the farmer or landowner, offers many new insights and a comprehensive view of the subject from early prehistory to the recent past. The fruit of many years' painstaking research, Avice Wilson's important new book follows her ground-breaking account of Wiltshire's cheesemaking industry, Forgotten Harvest, and her history of the north Wiltshire hamlet, Cocklebury, where she grew up. 240 x 170mm, 316pp, many ills, paperback. 978-0-946418-32-9, 14.95, September 2007"
