Book Description

While volumes of this work are not uncommon this leather-bound version is certainly something to grace any library or bookshelf. The book brings together the widely popular poet, John Masefield, and the celebrated artist, Edward Seago. Each painting is accompanied by a poem reflecting different aspects of the countryside, and as such it gives a lyrical, and sometimes nostalgic hymn to rural life in the 1930s.
