Publisher's Synopsis
This important book was first published in 1973. Edith Brill captured much of what was quickly disappearing, and now, 35 years later, all that she witnessed in its last vestiges of existence has gone. The traditions of centuries are here recorded together with a wealth of photographs. In the book, Edith covers a wide variety of topics including the buildings, farm skills, village crafts, as well as local industries and village pastimes.
