Back Through The Fields: Memories of Rural LifeMaurice McAleese takes us back to a more gentle time when the items making rural news were stories of horse fairs, pigs kept in sculleries, potato harvests raised in a race against time and a donkey who emigrated to the USA complete with her very own cart! These charming vignettes reveal a countryside abounding in characters and traditions that have long since faded away. The mood of more innocent times is complemented by the author's attractive line drawings. A wonderful read to curl up with on the sofa on a cold winter's night.
