Description

The Child in the Country penetrates beyond the popular romantic ideal of country childhood & vividly documents then realities facing children in a rural area. Such controversial & topical issues as the decline of public transport, the closure of village shops & schools, the lack of access to fields, woods & streams, and the influx of affluent newcomers are acutely analysed in relation to the country child.

 

Colin Ward (14 August 1924 – 11 February 2010) was a British anarchist writer. He has been called “one of the greatest anarchist thinkers of the past half century, and a pioneering social historian.”
