A year on the farm in North Devon that Morpurgo knew well and where he set War Horse, with a dozen poems by Ted Hughes who was a neighbour. First published in 1979, this is another valuable re-issue from Little Toller. James Ravilious’s black and white photographs of another era of agriculture are a powerful addition to this moving account.
