Synopsis
The superb, beautifully fashioned horse-drawn waggons and carts once the pride of craftsman and farmer have vanished from our farms, but well preserved examples may be seen all over Britain. No one knows more about them than James Arnold, a pioneer in the appreciation of country crafts. His magnificent drawings here show in full working detail the many regional variations of line and style - variations determined by local culture, as well as by terrain and type of use. The four and two wheeled types of waggon and cart are considered, their structure, the developments brought by the gradual change from oxen to horses for draught purposes, the regional styles - often with their own names and decorative touches - trolleys and boat-waggons, tip-carts, harvest-carts, gambos, long-carts and wheelcars. For everyone interested in our country heritage and in the everyday work of the farmers and country craftsmen of the past, for modellers and collectors, and for those who spot delightful old waggons in unexpected places, or admire those faithfully restored in folk museums, this book will be a delight.
