Originally published in 1880, this is another of Richard Jeffries' country masterpieces that have been rediscovered by a later generation. In his introduction to this edition, C. Henry warren writes, The abiding impression of Hodge and His Masters is one of a rare comprehension of the country character in all its complexity and an extraordinary grasp of the factual details of country life. A novel could scarcely be more absorbing in the variety of its characters drawn from life by a master-hand, whilst to the student it is an invaluable mine of information. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. Contents Include: The Farmers' Parliament Leaving His Farm A Man of Progress Going Downhill The Borrower and the Gambler An Agricultural Genius, Old Style The Gig and the Four-in-Hand A Bicycle Farmer Haymaking The Juke's Country The Fine Lady Farmer, Country Girls Mademoiselle, the Governess Fleeceborough, A Despot The Squire's Round Robin An Ambitious Squire The Parson's Wife A Modern Country Curate The Solicitor County-Court Day The Bank, The Old Newspaper The Village Factory, Village Visitors, Willow-Work Hodge's Field A Winter's Morning The Labourer's Children, Cottage Girls The Low Public Idlers The Cottage Charter, Four-acre Farmers Landlords' Difficulties, The Labourer as a Power-Modern Clergy A Wheat Country Grass Countries Hodge's Last Masters
