Eager Traveller was written for the grandchildren of the author in
order that they should see how different life was fifty years ago.
It is the story of a London child, dominated by a stern father, who
spent much of her time in the company of loving relatives. On
leaving school her father sent her into private service where she
was the lowest of the low, and made to take orders from all and
sundry. She enjoyed the travels of the great families and their
families and their servants as they moved about the country
following the huntin', shootin' and fishin' seasons. She married a
farm worker and as there was little money she was unable to travel,
so she became an "Armchair Traveller" until chance and someone's
bad luck took her abroad for the first time at the age of
forty-one. From then on travel came frequently and the greatest
adventure came in 1971 when she took her family behind the Iron
Curtain into Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia. They found kind and
happy people who, although they had known great sufferings, showed
kindness to the "Engleski". A strong psychic thread runs through
the story
