At the end of the 1960s, Kenneth Allsop, a famous television presenter and literary man-about-town, left London and settled amid the sunken lanes, ancient forests and chalk streams of west Dorset. He was at his very happiest here. He thought it the loveliest place on earth, and for three years he devoted a weekly newspaper column to his day-to-day life at the mill, brimming with humor and delight for the wildlife which shared his home. In the Country is not rustic or romantic. It is never unrealistic about agricultural modernisation and social change in the countryside. Yet, steeped with a deep sense of the past, Kenneth Allsop's writing speaks in defense of the natural world and stands firmly against the unchecked exploitation of the land. First published 1972 by Hamish Hamilton.
The Last Voyages of the Mayflower: A Story of the Pilgrims' Ship by Kenneth Allsop is a historical account of the final journeys made by the iconic ship that carried the Pilgrims to America in 1620. The book details the Mayflower's subsequent voyages to the New World, as well as its eventual fate. Allsop provides a vivid and engaging narrative, drawing on primary sources to recreate the ship's voyages and the experiences of those who sailed on it. The book also explores the wider historical context of the Mayflower's voyages, including the political and social factors that led to the Pilgrims' decision to leave England and settle in America. Overall, The Last Voyages of the Mayflower offers a fascinating insight into one of the most important events in American history, and is a must-read for anyone interested in the story of the Pilgrims and their ship.
