  • Product Description

    Tyneham is the archetypal "lost village": a Dorset hamlet in a beautiful valley, evacuated to make a training area during World War II and never returned to its inhabitants despite Churchill's pledge of restitution. It has lurked in the national imagination ever since; the symbol of a vanished England. This study is a subtle parable about the politics of landscape and a masterpiece of English irony. The Faber edition has been revised to take into account material that has come to light and includes many additional illustrations.
