Description: (TLDR)
Farm cidermaking until the 1930's
On the back of the book it says:
"This book grew out of part of the work done during 1978 to establish the Museum of Cider at Hereford. Five young people were employed under the Job Creation Programme to investigate the farm cider tradition, as it has been practised in the 20th Century, mainly through a series of about 750 personal interviews with present and former cider makers. The project also included two sessions of practical testing of the methods on traditional apparatus at which several hundred gallons of cider and perry were made. The area covered is the Herefordshire Region, including not only that county but all of the neighbouring ones particularly Worcester, Gloucestershire and the Welsh Border Counties. The author is Curator of the Museum."
