Alison Hartfield spent her childhood in an
isolated North Wiltshire village during the nineteen twenties, and subsequently
trained as a teacher of young children in Salisbury.
Set in the nineteen twenties A Mile for the
Milk traces the impact of rural upbringing and a now vanished way of life upon
the author and her sisters. The values instilled, the country school, the
village, the times and the seasons, all combine to provide a “childhood of
unimaginable richness”.
The author’s memories of those fleeting
years are beautifully illustrated by Judith Wall’s line drawings. The book will
appeal to all those who share the author’s love of the countryside.
