If you were to choose 100 objects to represent our rural past, what would they be?<\/p>

Join author Sally Coulthard as she explains why she has chosen the 100 objects showcased in her fascinating new book \u2013 and why she feels so strongly that we need to celebrate the daily routines of the peasants, farmers and craftspeople who shaped Britain but whose stories are largely untold in the historical record.\u00a0<\/p>

From prehistory to the present day, she reminds us that the things we leave behind provide a connection that no document can match. From farming tools to children\u2019s toys, domestic objects to strange curios, hear how these remnants of the past reveal fascinating insights into an often-forgotten way of life.<\/p>

Sally Coulthard <\/strong>is an expert in all things nature, history and craft. She has published over twenty-five non-fiction books and her titles have been translated into a dozen languages. She studied Archaeology and Anthropology at the University of Oxford and worked in television before becoming a writer. She lives on a smallholding in North Yorkshire with her family and writes a column for\u00a0Country Living<\/em>\u00a0magazine called A Good Life<\/em>.<\/p>
