Timelocke by Jack Barnao

Timelocke by Jack Barnao

In this far-reaching book, Philip Conford continues his survey of the British organic movement, which he began in The Origins of the Organic Movement (2001). This volume covers the movement from 1945 to the mid-1990s. It is the most thorough account of organic history to be published thus far.

Wide-ranging but closely detailed, the book examines the ways agriculture and food production became increasingly industrialized and technological during the post-war decades. In response, the organic movement urged an approach to agriculture based on awareness of ecological restraints and of the finitude of natural resources, seeking to cooperate with nature rather than dominate it.

Barnao, Jack: - Jack Barnao was the pseudonym of Ted Wood, author of the acclaimed Reid Bennett mystery series. He was born in Shoreham, Sussex, England. Throughout his life, he was a flier, a beat cop, a pin-boy, a soda-jerk, a freight porter, and an advertising hotshot. Wood also wrote dozens of short stories, hundreds of magazine articles, including two long-running humor columns, television plays, and one musical comedy. He had fourteen books, thirteen of them novels, published in Canada, the United States, Britain, Czechoslovakia, France, Germany, Holland, Italy, and Japan. As Jack Barnao, he also wrote the John Locke Mysteries: Lockestep, Hammerlocke, and Timelocke.

After being widowed, he married his wife, Mary, in 1975. He was the father of three, stepfather to another three, and granddad to a total of nine, counting steps and one step-step. Wood ran Whitby's Ezra Annes House bed and breakfast in partnership with Mary. He passed away in 2019.
