Henry Stephens (1795–1874) was a farmer and agricultural writer. These influential volumes, first published in 1842, contain Stephens' guide to the best contemporary farming practice. Arranged by season with copious illustrations, these volumes were considered the standard work on practical agriculture. Volume 3 describes summer and autumn farming tasks.
