The Cuckoo Pen: Tales of English Village Life Between the Wars

The Cuckoo Pen: Tales of English Village Life Between the Wars

by Fred Archer (Author)

Synopsis

When Fred Archer was a boy, men's voices were deep and mellow as they rang out following the plough, or sang in church on Sundays, a farmer could make a living with a herd of 20 cows, and each village had a blacksmith and wheelwright. Workers days were broken only by the turning rhythm of the seasons and the pleasure of a chat when they stopped for their bait of bread and cheese. This book recreates those days of the 1920s and 30s when life was so different from today.
