Reviews for The State and the Farmer

Reviews of the Original Edition of The State and the Farmer: 'Eminently readable and is the result of voluminous and painstaking research. It makes good use of original sources of information, both written and oral, and is well documented. It will be of great value to present and future students of the economic, social and political history of farming.' Agriculture 'Nothing is left hidden from view and the post-war development of agricultural policy, the growth of organization within the industry, and the relationship of the three partners with the Government are laid bare here with crystal clarity...' Country Landowner 'A first-class book that draws together the threads of British agricultural policy...' The Listener.
