内容説明・目次
内容説明
The farmers of Lincolnshire are an independent-minded hardworking group. Over the centuries they have altered the county to fit their needs by cutting down forests, draining bogs, taming rivers and pushing back the sea to create a rich and diverse agricultural landscape. Before the memories are lost forever, author Alan Stennett has taken the time to talk to the local people who make their living from the land. He examines the changes that have taken place over the last century and, using firsthand accounts and a fascinating collection of contemporary photographs, he tells the story of farming life in Lincolnshire - the conditions, the work, the people and the humor.
