An exploration in Devon with W. G. Hoskins
Haunts of Ancient Peace
' I had the good fortune to be born in a small and ancient city with unravished country all around it.' In the heart of Devon PROFESSOR WILLIAM HOSKINS explores this still beautiful countryside of his youth, with its isolated farms and its churches; villages and towns that have failed, and the small and ancient city of Exeter. And he shows how over the centuries success and sometimes even failure in farming and village life have produced a peaceful and unravished countryside.
