English Country Traditions

Christopher Wormell

4.2/5 ( ratings)

A celebration in text and art of the many facets of English country life, from bee-keeping to cider-making, cattle shows to corn harvests, thatching a roof to planting a cottage garden, elegantly discussed by Ian Niall and exquisitely illustrated with Christopher Wormell’s beautiful and precisely realized wood engravings. We’ll be honest; this is an offset edition of the original letterpress version, but it still has the look and feel of real type and it recalls the exquisite engravings of Thomas Bewick.

Publisher: David R. Godine, Publisher

Release: January 01, 1990
