The Toilers Of The Field
By Richard Jefferies
Published by Longmans, Green And Co: London 1892 1st Edition
Features: Vellum Bindings - Limited Edition Number 57 Of 105 Copies Published.

" The Toilers of the Field by Richard Jefferies is a collection of essays that offers a vivid and sympathetic portrayal of rural life and agricultural labor in late 19th-century England. Through a series of reflective and descriptive pieces, Jefferies explores the lives of farm workers, the rhythms of nature, and the quiet dignity of those who toil on the land. His keen observations and lyrical prose capture both the beauty and hardship of the countryside, emphasizing the deep connection between people and the natural world.

Jefferies' essays are not merely pastoral in tone—they often reveal a deeper social commentary on the conditions faced by agricultural laborers, whose efforts are essential yet frequently undervalued. He blends personal experience, philosophical insight, and environmental awareness, elevating the everyday scenes of rural life into meditations on existence, labor, and the passage of time. The Toilers of the Field is both a celebration of English country life and a thoughtful critique of the economic and social structures that define it."
