Working Towards Foulness

The Farmer and the Fury

It tells the story of the great North Sea flood of 1953 and its impact on the island communities, including the farming community. It is based on research from survivors of the great flood and is a great 1950s social history including farming methods of that time.

The Farmer and the Fury takes the reader on a journey through 1950s post war Britain, with evocative depictions of rural life and a cast of beautifully drawn characters.

The Author has autographed several copies so don’t miss out.
