Description: A photographic documentation of British agriculture in the early 1980s. The idea was to show the hidden work of ordinary farm workers and their day to day life. The photographer travelled extensively throughout the UK taking photographs of many aspects of farming. The book is full of well observed, and sometimes poignant portraits, which show the 'warts and all' of British farming. The complete collection of photographs amounting to nearly 10,000 black and white negtives and several thousand colour transparencies are now housed at the Museum of English Rural Life at Reading University.
