This is a 1919 biography of the author's grandfather, William Smith. It explores the life of this traditional English potter-turned-farmer in nineteenth-century rural England. Highly recommended for those with an interest in English life in the nineteenth century. Contents include: “Farnborough”, “The Farmhouse”, “Keeping Christmas”, “Summer at the Farm”, “The Potshop”, “The Second Marriage”, “The Potter Turns Farmer”, “The Pottery. 1. Manufacture”, “The Pottery. 2. Delivery”, “The Ware, Customers, etc.”, “Ancillary Industries”, “Sundries”, “The Neighbourhood”, “Dame Smith”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.
