For those in UK who enjoy/enjoyed the "Victorian Farm " series, or if you're simply interested in the ins & outs of Victorian farming right on the cusp of the advent of "machines" and "labour-saving" methods of the day, Henry Stephens groundbreaking, for its time, book "The Book of the Farm" is now free on Kobo , PDF and epub.
It was the bible of its time for the progressive Victorian farmer, particularly on estates where the "Master" was prepared to help his tenants try these new inventions and methods out.
Fascinating.

Sorry, don't know if it's available outside UK.

Thank you, that's very interesting. I found it is available for download at Google Books and the Internet Archive.
