In fine condition. Alan Jenkins has spent most of his life in villages and knows the customs and the characters intimately. In an account that is part fiction, part fact, he follows a typical English village month by month through the activities and seasons of the year. His sharp observations of expected and unexpected events result in a humorous and entertaining description of the villagers' daily life. The text is illustrated with photographs of typical 'happenings' and also includes four of Edward Bawden's delightful colour lithographs. 160 Pages.
