- This 292-page monograph is the first comprehensive study of the English farmworker to be published since the 1980s. It is based upon the collection and analysis of an extremely wide range of primary and secondary sources and offers extended critical analysis of these materials based upon recent historiographical trends in social, economic, gender and local history. Data extracted from statistical sources is combined with in-depth reading of personal and autobiographical accounts. The book covers a long time-span, from 1850 to the present day, during which the scale and nature of farm work in England changed enormously.
