Hard Road to London
£4.95
This book contains an intimate insight into the art of droving cattle from north Wales to London, a business that went on uninterrupted for a thousand years. The only thing that contributed to its demise was the introduction of the steam train. Suddenly animals could be transported to the markets in England overnight instead of a three week overland trek.
