{"product_id":"9781847081445","title":"The Plot : A Biography of My Father's English Acre by Madeleine Bunting","description":"Madeleine Bunting is one of the most high-profile commentators in Britain. Her father was deeply conservative, with romantic, old-fashioned views about England. After his death, and wanting to understand him better, Bunting began to explore his passionate, lifelong attachment to a small plot of land in North Yorkshire. Delving deep into the rich history of this acre, she uncovers traces of its Neolithic inhabitants and of the Cistercian monks; she learns of the medieval battles and considers the changing face of agriculture and leisure. The result sheds a fascinating light on what a contested, layered place England is, and on what belonging to a place might mean to all of us. The Plot  is an original, heartfelt and deeply political book.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43399885979826,"sku":"9781847081445","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/products\/9781847081445_833b03ae-b8aa-4ac0-b8a7-9eea37acfbaa.jpg?v=1705429859","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781847081445","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
