The Tyranny of the Countryside
By F. E. GREEN
Author of "The Awakening of England," "The Cottage Farm," &c.
Crown 8vo, cloth, 5s. net.
In this book the reader is shown the root causes of rural decay under that dominating tyranny which, in spite of rural Magna Chartas, hangs like a blight over England. The book is not a political pamphlet—it is something more. The author, like Cobbett, a tiller of the soil, and living the life of the yeoman farmer, understands those hardships that eventually drive the labourer from the land. He has attempted the difficult task of making the country labourer vocal.
