The classic account of the reality of life as a Gypsy in the UK in
the 1950s when Travellers lived in horse drawn wagons and stopped
by the wayside in quiet country lanes wherever possible, but were
often driven to "atch" besides main highways as so many of the old
stopping-places were fenced-off or built upon. This book is full of
stories of life on the road and descriptions of colorful characters
living for the present despite constant harassment by police and
suspicious landowners. The author, Dominic Reeve, still lives the
life of a Traveller but in a modern caravan pulled by a heavily
chromed four wheel drive pickup. Illustrated with his wife, this is
an inside account of "life on the road" and as such is of permanent
value to both students and the general reader as a vivid portrayal
of a vanished way of life.
