After a shaky start, the Welsh National Agricultural Society founded in 1904 was to surmount many problems and difficulties in its first 70 years or so to become by the 1980s one of the three major agricultural societies in the United Kingdom. This work provides the Society's success story.

This is a study of the lower orders within Welsh rural communities and pays attention to those people who worked and lived off the land of 18th century Wales, often amidst grinding poverty and insecurity.
