Description:
Collingwood,3066: Friends of the Earth, 1984. Hardcover. Very Good. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. 108 pages, illustrated. The book is ex library. It has been covered in contact, carries a Dewey number on the spine and library stamps on the copyright page and the two 'Introduction' pages do not match the rest of the book, whose pages are tanned. The book could also be library bound, a binding which is indestructible. Overall a clean, unmarked and solid copy. "This book is a most interesting and useful attempt to talk to farming people about their work, their land, their attitudes to it and their lives. You could write a hundred books on the subject before you began to know anything like the truth. This book is a pioneering attempt." (Trove)
