Bill Mitchell joined The Dalesman magazine in 1949 and started a journalistic career inspired by Harry Scott's adage 'put people before things'. He took over as editor from Scott in 1968, a position he held for 18 years. As well as his work for the popular magazine, Bill had a prodigious output which extended across more than 200 books, innumerable articles and countless lectures. His many interviews with Dales people reflect a bygone age. He became an expert on many topics, but 'Bill Mitchell's Yorkshire' concentrates on the county of his birth, across which he travelled many times gathering material. Here, his son David has compiled a selection of his father's life's work from around the Broad Acres, including some previously unpublished material.
