A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

German edition of this book appeared in I9O41. When the Cambridge University Press decided to publish the present translation I realised that it would be necessary to add a considerable amount of supplementary matter. In the historical part of the book it was desirable to notice the publications of the six intervening years on the question of the decay of the yeomanry, although they have not altered my views as to the causes of the disappearance of that class. But above all it was necessary to take theS mall Holdings A ct of 1908 into consideration. I therefore went toE ngland in the summer of 1910 in order to study its working on the spot, so far as it has gone at present. The statistics have been brought up to 1909 so far as was possible. The appendix on The Modern Small Holder did not appear in the German edition. It is an attempt briefly to outline some new impressions received as to the psychological aspects of the small holdings question. My personal study of the question was of course mainly made in the course of 1903, when I spent six months touring rural England with this end in view. It is a pleasant duty to offer my warm thanks here to all those who so kindly helped me with information. It is not possible to name them all, for if they were numerous in 1903, they were still more numerous in 1910. But it was a pleasure to find when I came back toE ngland in 1910 that no one had forgotten me, and I am proud to have had personal experience of theE nglish loyalty so well known in Germany. It was sad to miss my old and valued friend Arthur Wilson-F ox, C.B., so early and 1I twas published under the title Entstehung und Ruckgang des landwirtschaftlickc Grossbetriebs in England, by Julius Springer, Berlin. I owe my thanks toM essrs Springer for giving their consent to the translation.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
