About this title: This reprint of the third book in Nichols' "Allways trilogy" contains a new foreword by Bryan Connon, Beverley Nichols' biographer. Set in the English countryside, the hilarious memoir is as much about the author's love for plants as it is about the village in which he lived.

Description: Good. No Jacket. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. A Village in a Valley: Set in the English countryside, this hilarious memoir, is as much about the author's love for plants as it is about the village in a Valley. This as the author says is the chronicle of Allways; of a very tiny village in the quietest county in England. It is the story of doors opening and shutting onto empty lanes, of smoke ascending into tranquil skies, of whispers about nothing, borne on the wind over wide fields and broad brooks. ... read more
