Dalesman
''Dalesman'' is a British monthly regional magazine, based in Skipton, and serving the English county of Yorkshire. Its first edition was published in March 1939, under the original title of The Yorkshire Dalesman: A Monthly Magazine of Dales' Life and Industry.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ncbpt.org.uk/folly/exhibitions/exhibitions_2012/dalesman/dalesman_press_release.pdf )〕 Although originally only serving the Yorkshire Dales, the magazine was soon expanded to cover the whole county of Yorkshire, with a particular focus on the countryside and over the years it has become a northern institution. It remains the biggest selling regional consumer magazine in the UK and Yorkshire's best selling magazine.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.pressgazette.co.uk/just-137-out-516-uk-consumer-magazines-put-sales-year-year-full-breakdown-all-titles )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.countrypublications.co.uk/pdf/Dalesman_Media_Pack.pdf )〕
== Content ==
The magazine celebrates the people, landscapes and heritage of England's biggest county. Dalesman covers the whole of Yorkshire, though it has a rural focus that takes in the Yorkshire Dales, North York Moors, Yorkshire Wolds and Yorkshire coast, along with the county capital of York. Each issue contains stories about the people and places that make Yorkshire unique, articles on crafts, history and nature, alongside photographs and paintings of the stunning Yorkshire scenery. As well as factual features and interviews, there are also short stories, puzzles, guided walks, plus numerous jokes and cartoons, some in Yorkshire dialect.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.uniquemagazines.co.uk/magazine-subscriptions-1312/Subscribe-To-Dalesman-Magazine-Subscription#more )〕 The magazine is proud of its reader loyalty and participation, characteristics which shine through in the magazine’s thriving Readers’ Club.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.dalesman.co.uk/shop/dalesman-magazine )〕
Many famous names have written for Dalesman, including J. B. Priestley, Ella Pontefract, Bill Cowley and Alan Bennett. Current regular contributors include "Bard of Barnsley" Ian McMillan, Nicholas Rhea, who wrote the Constable books that the TV series Heartbeat was based on, Ashley Jackson (artist), and cartoonists Tony Husband and Karl Dixon.
Popular monthly features include Diary of a Yorkshire Farmer's Wife, Signs and Wonders (amusing signs spotted around Yorkshire), Wild Yorkshire, My Best Day Out and Round About the Ridings. Aside from A Dalesman's Diary - which has been there from issue one - the magazine's longest-running feature is the Old Amos cartoon, which has been a fixture in Dalesman since May 1953, making Old Amos four years older than fellow northern cartoon character Andy Capp. Just two artists have drawn Old Amos over the last six decades – father and son Rowland and Pete Lindup. Pete carried on immediately after Rowland’s death in 1989. Old Amos is a bearded gentleman who dishes out quotable〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/tag/old-amos )〕 wisdom and advice, often in Yorkshire dialect.
