This novel is an affectionate look at the variety of homes in England, squatters, and other owners of dilapidated homes. Excerpt: "When we reached that part of the road to Nymet Rowland where their field touched, we stopped, and in a moment some very angry, excited women and children rushed out. I bade them be quiet and hear what I had to say and then told them that Lord ---- had asked me to bring these comforts to the sick man and that I was come to offer him my services in his illness. They were instantly pacified and pleased, and begged me to come to what they called the farm—a place with half a roof and three walls."
