I'm a bit busy reading at the moment , but I'll be in touch. I feel I must warn folk not to buy this book though . If by chance one accidently falls into your hands; DO NOT OPEN IT If you do, you risk not getting any work done and going to sleep later than you should . Then there is a chance that you'll wake up really, really early and , glancing at the glossy , soft-back cover laying like a purring harlot on the bedside table , think to yourself "Just a couple more pages . I can handle it ." Edit : Well, I posted that at silly o'clock this morning . That was hours ago. Two pages weren't enough.

comanche 3,040 Posted November 29, 2019 Report Share Posted November 29, 2019 (edited) I guess as there seem to be lot of copies locked in a container at the North Pole at the moment , it might be unfair for anyone who has read the book to give too much away. It deserves a proper reveiw ,but all those excited boys and girls who are hoping to find a book-shaped parcel in their Christmas stocking need to know is the wait will be worth it . All you'll get from me is that it's content ranges from serious,informative and thought provoking ,to the hilarious and downright hairy ! Along with tales of past derring-do and ,sometimes, disaster comes a chapter or two touching on contempory influences within field-sports ,and there is a bit of record-straightening. Those of a certain age will alternatly cringe and laugh when reminded of how things were, and through the Author's words ,younger readers have a chance to experience a time of madnes that can never be repeated. Written in a unique style this is an honest and very personal book. Well I like it! Edited November 30, 2019 by comanche 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
