A field full of folk

In the early 1960s Charles Moseley and his wife bought a run-down cottage in a remote Cambridgeshire hamlet. Their new home was no picture book English village. The people, earning a hard living from their small farms and ancient machinery, treated the Moseleys kindly but with condescension. Thirty years later, Dr Moseley has written a warm, enchanting, eloquent account of how this dour place won his loyalty and, ultimately, his love. He describes the troubles and triumphs of restoring his cottage, the satisfaction of growing his own food, and the gradual mastering of ancient skills.
