Born in rural Herefordshire in 1931, Robert Jenkins grants us a memoir of a vanished childhood. A series of fascinating vignettes and anecdotes, skilfully strung together, convey with candour and hu-mour the spirit of a bygone era, seen through the eyes of a child as he grows into a man. His love of the natural world is unsentimental, indisputable and honest. He paints a picture of rural life in the '30s and '40s as warm and intimate as Laurie Lee's 'Cider with Rosie' does for an earlier epoch.
