Product Description
Product Description
The village of Zennor lies between St Ives and Land's End and its bleak and windswept landscape makes a dramatic contrast to the flourishing farming communities described in this book. Alison Symons' survey of the farms of Zennor is systematic and comprehensive, and is divided into sections on Animals, Crops, "Necessaries and Etceteras" and Life and Tradition. Many traditional farming activites such as dairy work, buttermaking, looking after poultry and pig-keeping, harvest and hay-making, are described in a factual, informative way, giving a clear picture of a way of life that had evolved over many hundreds of years. An unexpected taste of the intellectual life of the 20th century is introduced by encounters with a number of writers and artists associated with the St Ives area.
