You don't need to come from a farming or indeed rural background to appreciate the message within this book.
Richard Benson may not have had the mindset/skills to help out so much first hand on his parents' farm but his writing skills have ensured that the plight of this & other farms have not gone un-noticed.
This he achieves and it is such a lovely story of a country boy turned journalist in London, easy comfortable reading.
Maybe in future you could make mention if bad language is included in any of your books. I am much more cautious about purchasing now.

This book is at once riveting and painful and sad. It intensifies my journey to farmers markets to seek out growers and support where I can. Well worth the read
As a person who grew up on a Midwestern US farm, this book was especially touching in its description of an English family farm; the land, its inhabitants and the animals nurtured by them.
Richard Benson gets it right.
