The history of the "Travellers" is handed down through the traditional method of a "Say". Every important, amusing or significant event is turned into a story and is faithfully repeated with great accuracy from generation to generation.

This book should have wide appeal as it has not only many personal insights into the travelling family but also records their purchase of several early steam-driven carousels, one of which has been featured in the films Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang and Half-a-Sixpence.

This is the 2004 Isis edition with large print and is very collectable.
