This vintage book contains an insightful account based on the author’s lifelong experiences in Surrey, England during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is a chronicle of the ways and lives of the older working class people of the area with whom the author was familiar, who represented to the author a dying breed belonging to a soon-to-be bygone era. Gertrude Jekyll (1843 - 1932) was a British garden designer, horticulturist, photographer, craftswoman, artist, and writer. She is responsible for designing and creating over 400 gardens in the United Kingdom, Europe and the United States, as well as writing more than 1,000 articles for related magazines. She is credited with having had a significant influence on gardening by both British and American enthusiasts. Contents include: Cottages and Farms', 'The Old Furniture of Cottage and Farmhouse', 'The Cottage Fireside', 'Candle-Light and Candlesticks', 'Cottage Ornaments', 'Crockers and Table Ware', 'Home Industries', 'Carious Articles Found in Cottages', 'Tools and Rural Industries', Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on homesteading.
