A Free Farmer, in a Free State: A Study of Rural Life and Industry, and Agricultural Politics in an Agricultural Country (Classic Reprint) - Brossura
Sinossi
Excerpt from A Free Farmer, in a Free State: A Study of Rural Life and Industry, and Agricultural Politics in an Agricultural Country
I hope I have lived long enough in Rural England, in my youth as well as in my middle age, not to fall into the sin that so easily besets the versatile journalists-turned-coun trymen a-year-but - only-twa' who seem to write so much rural matter in the papers. A book like this must have many shortcomings but, whatever they may be, the reader who knows the English country - side because he lives in it all the year round, and he and his have succeeded in getting, all things considered, a fair and agreeable living out of it, is not to be tried once more by the most exasperating and most hopeless of all the follies of rural journalism and authorship! I press upon him no patronising proposals to transfer to our much-prescribed-for rural districts an agricul tural and horticultural practice rooted in the geographical and economic conditions of another country; I offend his sense of justice by no japes at an agriculture so Old, so varied, so capitalised, so competent and so world-famous as that of Great Britain. Every year I live in the country.
