A Village in a Valley is a 1934 humorous memoir by Beverley Nichols, the third book in his "Allways" trilogy, which chronicles his life and love for gardening in the fictional English village of Glatton (a stand-in for Allways). Illustrated by Rex Whistler, the book is a charming and witty exploration of English country life, nature, and the importance of gardens, featuring eccentric villagers and Nichols's deep appreciation for plants.
