There's an entire genre of 'moving to the countryside' books, what publishers like to call 'settlement non-fiction'. The books are normally written to commission, it's a genre I had never explored or read before I wrote my own book, which I suppose I have to now admit, belongs in some way to this genre.
This is I suppose one, written from the perspective of the landed gentry and I haven't read it. So I who I am I to argue with the reviewers, hence the 5 stars.
But if you do read this book, then try A PLACE IN MY COUNTRY: In Search of a Rural Dream. I have tried to give a voice to the 'unsavoury' tenants as referred to in the synopopsis to this book, a group of people in a country where 80% of our land is ownded by a very few small group of people.
I'm biased, because I wrote it. Well and widely reviewed, I have tried to leave room for the reader interested in the English countryside to come to their own conclusions.
Perhaps the best book in this genre is The Engima of Arrival by V.S Naipaul, luckily a book I only read after I had finished mine. I think I could have called mine The Enigma or Arrival and I should have been tougher about resisting my publisher's insistence on a subtitle, which all these books seem to have.
