From the Foreword:
"Unfolding in its lively text, and
seen in its valuable archive photographs, Peter Wilkes' delightful
book tells the story of how and why the Goose Fair has reached such
prestigious status. The pageant of the past is researched through
rare data, reminiscences, anecdotes and detail from the present to
its distant origins in antiquity. Peter's book will fill a long
vacant slot in the lace city's library of resources about its great
traditions. It is a most welcome treasure, and will be valued by all
who have a fond acquaintance with Nottingham and its Goose Fair."
