The Forest of Dean

Humanities Pr

<p>Humphrey Phelps farmed in west Gloucestershire for most of his life, as did his father and his grandfather before him. He has seen farming change from the days when much of the work on a farm was done by manual labor. In this collection of articles that he wrote for various newspapers and magazines, Phelps looks at how farming has changed over the years, for better and for worse, and laments the passing of some of its more traditional aspects in the name of progress. Written in an engaging style and with a genuine affection for his subject, this is a charming selection of musings and anecdotes, interwoven with serious analysis of the state of the countryside and farming that will appeal to all who love Gloucestershire and rural life.</p>

This book is about life and work in the Forest of Dean during the first half of the last century. The story is comprised of the reminiscences of the men who, as boys, dragged coal in the pits and of the women who shared their hard and often dangerous lives. This account, illustrated with many black and white images, is a narration of an important time in social history. It is a unique record of the day to day life of the people who worked in the traditional industries of the Forest of Dean and will be of interest to all who know the area.
