Made In Britain: A Road Trip to Save Britain’s Heritage Crafts
Britain is a country of crafts and craftspeople: from the kiltmakers in Edinburgh and the coopers in North Yorkshire, to the cricket ball makers in the heart of London. But many of these skills are in danger of dying out. With 147 endangered and critically endangered crafts on the Heritage Craft Red List, and many skilled professions now being listed as extinct, our failure to appreciate and nurture these crafts is threatening them becoming lost forever. In this book Jay Blades and Charlotte Reather travelled the UK to shine a light on ten key British heritage crafts and met the makers and apprentices fighting to keep them alive.
With best wishes from Edward Barder & Colin Whithouse, craftsmen made in Britain
