Abstract
THE written description of highly skilled manual work is naturally very difficult, especially if it has to be understood by readers not acquainted with the work. The author of this book deals in turn with each of the main departments of a mixed farm and gives a lucid account of the series of skilled operations performed by each farm worker, and the reasons underlying them. The book is presented in an interesting and very readable form, and the author obviously knows his subject well.
