The last horsemen - Charles Bowden

The Last Horsemen is the inspiring story of John Dodd and his family, who have lived on Sillywrae Farm-the last farm in Britain to be worked by horses-for more than 150 years. Telling the inspirational story of a year in the life of John Dodd, his family, and the farm, this book compellingly evokes the beauty of the countryside. With a farming industry that seems to lurch from crisis to crisis, learning from people who have chosen an alternative way of life becomes ever more important. The Last Horsemen is a truly inspirational opportunity to view first-hand scenes rarely played out in Britain's countryside in the 21st century.
