Riassunto

Deals with the historical evolution of the English landscape as we know it. It dispels the popular belief that the pattern of the land is a result of 18th-century enclosures and attributes it instead to a much longer evolution. This book traces the chronological development of the English landscape from pre-Roman days to the eve of the Black Death, onwards to the Industrial Revolution and up to the present day. With the help of photographs and charts, Professor Hopkins discusses the origins of Devonshire hedge-banks and lanes, the ruined churches in Norfolk and lost villages in Lincolnshire, Somerset's marshland ditches, Cornwall's remote granite farmsteads and the lonely pastures of upland Northamptonshire.

Descrizione libreria

Campbell & Buccleuch is a subsidiary of Sholto Campbell Books (which specialises in Latin and Greek and the Ancient World). Campbell & Buccleuch is a larger and more general bookstore, with our main sections on Africana, Arabic and Semitic languages, European languages (French, Italian, some German), English novels and poetry, English letters and diaries, History, Biography, Cookery, Travel and Exploration. All our books are second-hand, and are in good, very good or as-new condition. All of our books are checked before being entered on Abebooks and we discard any books that are damaged, not clean, or have markings to the text. With very rare exceptions, we do not sell books that have previously come from a public library. We photograph all of our books before entering them and show details of any defects. We charge postage at the rates provided by Royal Mail, and our online pricing takes this extra postal charge into account.
