Yorkshire Ditties is a collection of humorous and satirical poems written by John Hartley and published in 1868. The poems are written in the dialect of Yorkshire, a region in Northern England, and depict the lives of the working-class people in the area. The book is divided into several sections, each focusing on a different aspect of Yorkshire life, such as farming, mining, and village gossip. The poems are written in a lively and colloquial style, with a strong emphasis on local dialect and slang. Some of the poems are based on real-life events and characters, while others are purely fictional. Overall, Yorkshire Ditties provides a charming and entertaining glimpse into the culture and traditions of Yorkshire in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
