Description

Hardback. viii,272pp.+ publisher’s ads. A collection of essays and sketches on Somerset life especially traditional crafts and their practitioners.

Gilt titles to the spine. Laid-in is an article from the Exmoor Review 1974 on the subject of Waler Rayond and the unwarranted disregard of his work.
