Journal Entry 1 by wyjane from Radford Semele, Warwickshire United Kingdom on Tuesday, October 3, 2006
from the back of the book:
...her endearing and precise record of country life at the end of the last century - a record in which she brilliantly engraves the fast-dissolving England of peasant, yeoman and craftsman and tints her picture with the cheerful courage and the rare pleasures that marked a self-sufficient world of work and poverty.
of course the 'last century' refers to the 19th.
Its a sobering read, to discover how far we have 'progressed' since those days.
This is going into the History and chocolate Bookbox.
