Bondagers by Ian Macdougall

These personal recollections of their working lives by eight Scots women farm workers were recorded in interviews in 1997-98 by the Scottish Working People's History Trust. At the time of the interviews the respective ages of the eight women ranged from 82 to 93. All of them retained clear recollections of their working years on farms in the south-east of Scotland, as well as other aspects of their lives, including their housing, educational and recreational experiences. Their memories appear here in edited form, but in their own spoken words.
Ian MacDougall, a long-standing research worker of the Scottish Working People’s History Trust, played a pivotal role in recording working people’s lives and publishing their stories. He authored several works of social history including Bondagers, All Men are Brethren, Voices of Scottish Journalists, Voices from War and Voices from the Hunger Marches. He died in April 2020.
