Description

The Horse in the Furrow by George Ewart Evans

 

The Suffolk Punch – that sturdy, compact draft horse of noble ancestry – was, until mechanisation, the powerhouse of the East Anglian farming community. Renowned social historian George Ewart Evans explores this potent symbol of a bygone era, and the complex network – farmer, horseman, groom, smith, harness-maker and tailor – which surrounded it.

 

Illustrated by C F Tunnicliffe
