Crafted in Britain is a celebration of Britain`s traditional crafts & industries that have survived into the modern world, not as museums but on their merits. In an age of increasing automation & standardisation, it is a joy to find such places, where craftsmanship & personal skills are still valued. Their world is recreated in Rob Scott`s dramatic photographs, while the processes & history of the different industries is described in the captivating text by Anthony Burton. They have travelled the country from the Spey valley in Scotl&, where they recorded the workers in a traditional distillery & a cooperage, to Cornwall & the studio of a specialist pub sign painter. They have gone underground with a Free Miner of the Forest of Dean & seen molten metal being poured to create majestic church bells. The book delights in the variety & individuality of the different industries. For both author & photographer it has been a revelation to see some of these processes at work: to watch a craftsman take a strip of silver & work it by hand into a spoon, or to find clocks being made in a workshop that looks as if it has scarcely changed for a hundred years. Crafted in Britain gives you the opportunity to share these experiences & delight in the discovery of these magnificent survivors. ...
