Publisher's Synopsis

About two thirds of Britain's small, traditional orchards have been lost since 1960. In 2007 the authors began a quest to find and identify old varieties of cider apple around Dorset. This is an account of that journey which lasted more than a decade and at the same time a history of the West Country orchards and cider-makers.

About the Publisher

Little Toller Books

Little Toller Books was born in 2008 as an imprint of the Dovecote Press, a family-run publishing company that has specialised in books about rural life and local history since 1974. Little Toller was started with a singular purpose: to revive forgotten and classic books about nature and rural life in the British Isles. The success of Little Toller's Nature Classics has enabled it to grow into an independent publisher, attuned to writers and artists who seek inventive ways to reconnect us with the natural world and to celebrate the places we live in.
