    Countryman magazine was founded in 1927 by J. W. Robertson Scott, who edited it from his office in Idbury in rural Oxfordshire for the first 21 years. He was succeeded as editor by John Cripps, son of Stafford Cripps. It is now edited by Mark Whitley at offices in Broughton Hall, North Yorkshire. It was published quarterly until the 1990s, when it became a bimonthly. It is now a monthly, with a circulation of about 23,000.

    In the 1950s it described itself as "A quarterly non-party review and miscellany of rural life and work for the English-speaking world". Today its website says: "Countryman focuses on the rural issues of today, and tomorrow, as well as including features on the people, places, history and wildlife that make the British countryside so special."

    In the Winter 1948 issue Field Marshal Wavell wrote a tribute in verse to the magazine's eclecticism, one stanza of which reads:

      The ethics of "bundling", the methods of trundling
      A wheelbarrow, trolley or pram,
      Dogs, badgers and sheep, a girl chimney-sweep,
      The way to make strawberry jam;
      Dunmow and its flitches, the trial of witches,
      The somnambulation of wigeon,
      You’ll find them all here, with discourses on beer
      And maternal lactation in pigeon.

    where have my countrymen gone
    all your patriots are just millionaires
    and look what they've done
    they just
    puncture you and destroy the heir
    all your countrymen gone
    they just
    picked up and left when the west was won
    and where are they now
    well the secret assasin has taken some
    one good thing about the feeling
    operate and keep me stale
    will my warm heart ever fail
    will my warm heart ever fail
    i am bore from two sides
    with the eagerness of the newly free
    are you dead or alive
    when your country's motto's don't tread on me
    one good thing about the feeling
    operate and keep me stale
    will my warm heart ever fail
    will my warm heart ever fail
    one good thing about the feeling
    operate and keep me stale
    will my warm heart ever fail
    will my warm heart ever fail
    will my warm heart ever fail
    will this warm heart ever fail
    will it fail
    will it fail
    will it fail
    will my warm heart ever fail
