Description
The 2001 foot and mouth disease epidemic in the UK had a devastating and long-lasting impact on individuals and communities. Although many studies about FMD have been published since 2001, this is the first book to examine in any detail the ways in which the outbreak affected the fabric of rural life and rural culture across class and generations. -- .
