David Mellor Knihy

In 1940 the familiar British landscape was under attack, not only from the imminent threat of German bombers but also from rapid urban development. The Ministry of Labour, in association with the Pilgrim Trust, commissioned many of Britain's foremost artists to paint a record of the changing face of the country. This record of more than 1500 watercolours was given into the care of the Victoria & Albert Museum and this book presents more than 100 of these paintings. Artists featured include John Piper, Kenneth Rowntree, Barbara Jones, Rowland Hilder and Sir William Russell Flint.

The purpose of this little book is to help people understand the realities of trying to transition from working full-time to achieving genuine semi- retirement. David Mellor is making this journey himself and wanted to share with other people what it is really like.
