The Cotswolds

More about the book

It's a nostalgic banquet of anecdotes and quotes, trade and tradition, feasts and festivals, family and communal life--a veritable scrapbook of how things used to be in the Cotswold hills. Numerous archive photographs and illustrations evoke the atmosphere of times gone by, revealing how it felt to be a child at school, to work in the blacksmith's forge, to weave wool, or to be cast in the workhouse. You'll feel as if you saw it all firsthand.
