Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Manor Book of Ottery Saint Mary
The natural way to learn history is not to pore over introductory primers or general text-books, but to study the records Of a familiar countryside or town, whether they be written on vellum and kept in the muniment chests of church, hall, and council chamber, or be traced in furrow and fence, cob and thatch, bricks and mortar over the face of the land.
