Where Are the Fellows Who Cut the Hay?

This is a thoughtful journey into rural life, part memoir and part social history, informed and inspired by the knowledge of oral historian George Ewart Evans and his compassionate understanding of the ways of the countryside.  Woven into a narrative which is both historical and personal are the new stories of those who work to reclaim a more ethical approach to farming and rural trade.  Ashton demonstrates how sometimes we need to push against the tide of 'progress' in order to move forwards sustainably. This would make a great gift for lovers of the countryside and historians alike.
