A delight. For ripe rustic nostalgia Fred Archer leaves the field standing The Sunday Telegraph I have enjoyed them all but this is probably his best The Sunday Times A wonderful memoir of times long past from the celebrated chronicler of life in rural England In GOLDEN SHEAVES, BLACK HORSES, Archer has recorded the beauty of the West of England and the villagers living in the area during the last decades of the 19th Century. Archer explained his decision to write about these stubborn and strong characters by saying: I felt it would be such a pity if, when these characters died, their sayings, customs, ways of life, how they dressed, should vanish with them . Thanks to Fred Archer's powers of observation and memory, and above all his truthful turn of phrase, they never will.Product Identifiers
