Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book exposes the stark realities and injustices of rural England's housing conditions, bringing the reader face to face with the inhumane living situations of the English peasantry. The author draws on extensive research and historical context to illuminate the roots of this social disparity, challenging the notion that the countryside is a picturesque idyll. A century of legislation has failed to address the problem, with private enterprise unable or unwilling to meet this pressing need. The author delves into the historical relationship between the ruling class and the peasantry, demonstrating how neglect has led to the deterioration of village life. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the factors contributing to the housing crisis, including the impact of falling agricultural prices and the influence of wealthy landowners. The author argues that local authorities must play a more active role in providing affordable housing, challenging the prevailing view that this is not a legitimate function of government. This timely work is essential reading for anyone concerned with social justice and the well-being of rural communities. It presents a compelling case for urgent action to address the shocking conditions in which many agricultural workers are forced to live.
