The WI Country Woman's Year 1960 by Shirley Paget
Nearly 60 years ago, the WI handbook for country women teaches, through the seasons, the delights of cider-making, indoor bulb-planting, smocking, butter-making, cooking with home-grown herbs, public speaking, wall-papering, Durham quilting and more. How much times have changed for women, but how much we have forgotten!

At various points in her busy life, Dame Paget was also Chairman of the Broadcasting Complaints Commission, Chairman of the drama and dance advisory committee of the British Council; and a vice-chairman of the Museums and Galleries Commission.
