It contains extracts from family letters, documents, and anecdotes which offer insight into a vast range of social, political, and religious issues through the day-to-day life in his village, Lustleigh, located on the edge of Dartmoor. This wonderful, illustrated book is highly recommended for those with an interest in the history of Devon and rural English life in general.
