[Wiki] ***'This is a portrait of an Oxfordshire village, and the story of the lives of some of the inhabitants in the period round about Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee in 1887. In those years life in such remote country places flowed peacefully; war was no more than a subject for school history lessons and for old men's tales by the winter fireside; the motor bus, the cinema, and the wireless broadcast were still in the unglimpsed future; hard work with plain fare was the ordinary villagers' lot and they had, as they themselves said, troubles enough and to spare. But life was not all hardship; such pleasures as came their way were enjoyed with a wholeheartedness unknown to-day. The village feast and the flower show were highlights of the year; the may-garland was still carried in procession on May Day; there were mummers at Christmas; weddings and christenings, harvest homes, pig feasts, alehouse jollity, and dancing on the green. In the intervals between such doings the villagers had to depend upon personal resources for entertainment, and with what zest they lived and the complications they encountered are recorded here by an eyewitness who had already shown in "Lark Rise to Candleford" her unique gift of preserving in attractive and accomplished prose a phase of English life which might otherwise pass unrecorded.'
