"Our Village" by Mary Russell Mitford is a collection of literary sketches published during the 1820s and 1830s. These vivid portraits capture rural life in Three Mile Cross, a small hamlet near Reading in Berkshire, where Mitford lived. Written on location with careful attention to real people and places, the sketches paint an affectionate picture of country scenery, characters, and manners.
