- book depicting the series, with lots of colour photos and some recipes
around A4 size, hardcover, regular to smaller font size, 249 pages

''BBC's turn-back-the-clock `Farm' series continue with this eight-part look at the efforts of historian Ruth Goodman and archaeologists Alex Langlands and Peter Ginn, who run Manor Farm as if it was during the Second World War. The programme focuses on all aspects of domestic and farming life of the period, with the team managing livestock, attempting to cultivate unused land, tackling new tools and technologies, and learning the basics of civil defence, while all the time confronting shortages. They face one of the biggest challenges ever seen in the history of the British countryside - what Winston Churchill called `the frontline of freedom'. ''


Very cool books, looking for loving new home or homes :)
