Paperback. Condición: Fair. H. Rider Haggard (1856 1925) is best known as the successful writer of adventure stories with exotic backgrounds such as King Solomon's Mines and She. However, he also served on a number of royal commissions, and in managing his wife's Norfolk estate became a recognised expert on agricultural matters. A Farmer's Year is his diary for 1898, recounting the work of the farm, month by month, together with observations on rural life and the state of agriculture in general, which was suffering due to the population drift to the towns and competition from cheaper imported food. His descriptions of country life are beautifully written, with many illustrations: he clearly loves the land and is concerned for its future, but does not ignore the hardship faced by many farmers and their workers. The book is a fascinating mixture of anecdote and natural history, as well as depicting late Victorian agricultural methods. Nº de ref. del artículo: 00105088057

Soft cover. Condición: Good. London: The Cresset Library, 1987. Soft Cover. 489 p. Good: some creases and wear to the covers, with small chipping to top and base of spine but clean and sound inside. Introduction by Ronald Blythe. Fascinating diary of the year 1898 on H. Rider Haggard's farm. It covers what he is doing agriculturally, but also the people around him, their lives and social conditions, in intensely descriptive language. It's an intriguing contrast between the dashing adventures of his books and the man absorbed in the details of country life. Nº de ref. del artículo: 000530
