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.
