"The countryside is presented through the memories of a skilled rural craftsman - for Tulip was farm worker, thatcher and hurdle maker. The activities of the poachers, horsemen and harvest gangs of Tulip's youth are recounted. The tranquil footpath of today is brought to life by reading of the gypsy encampment, human tragedy or altercation that occurred there in former times. Our remaining hedgerows are embellished through Tulip's accounts of rabbitting, nut gathering and pollarding." 29.5cms x 21cms. Pp.96, 13 local maps + occasional black & white photo illustrations. Yellow card covers. Scarce. Very Good.
