Henry Stephens (1795–1874) was a farmer and writer on agriculture. These influential volumes, first published in 1842, contain Stephens' detailed guide to the best contemporary farming practice. Arranged by season with copious illustrations, these volumes were considered the standard work on practical agriculture. Volume 1 describes winter farming tasks.
