Excerpt from The Land Problem: An Impartial Survey; Home Counties
It was no doubt a little rash to accept a proposal to write 'an impartial survey' of the Rural Problem within the limits of a little book like this.
It is of such immense importance, however, that the busy, town-dwelling newspaper reader should have something like an all-round view of what is commonly known as the Land Question, that it seemed worth while to attempt, even within limited compass, a non-party sketch of its outstanding features. Obviously, the writer has frequently been faced with the necessity of passing by matters of which account ought to be taken in discussing so large a subject.
In regard to the difficulty of steering clear of party polities, it is permissible to say, perhaps, that my writing on rural subjects has been, during a long period, constantly directed towards getting people to consider facts rather than opinions.
