John Hartley, born in Halifax in 1839, was the most prolific Yorkshire dialect writer of his day. Most of his output can be found in the Clock Almanacks dated 1867-1916, the final one published after his death in 1915. Writing in Yorkshire dialect he made an enormous contribution to establishing it as a literary medium and preserving it for modern audiences. In this book, Rod Dimbleby brings John Hartley and his work vividly to life.
