'In his personal view of farming from 1936 to 1949, the author takes us back to the farms with which he was involved from his late teens. Managing pig units, arable enterprises and horticultural ventures, he encountered gentlemen farmers, land settlement smallholders, war time profiteers and refugees, until he came to Appleacre farm in West Suffolk. There with 14 men and two boys, rooted in the traditions of horse-drawn farming, he found himself using for the first time combines and weedkillers; agriculture was changing forever.' [37]
