<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Old friends and new faces join the scholars, rogues and countrymen of Brensham with its crooked village street and crooked church spire.<br/><br/>Among its rare individuals who share an obstinacy for making life a romantic and<br/>hilarious adventure are those lively landgirls, The Frolick Virgins, Dai, the hymn-singing postman, and William Hart who claimed to be descended from William Shakespeare and loved Pheemy, the young gypsy, not wisely but too well.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>John Moore (1907-1967) was a British author and pioneer conservationist. He was born in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire in 1907 and died in Bristol in 1967. His most famous work was Portrait of Elmbury, published in 1945, about life in Tewkesbury in the early 20th century. This work, along with <i>Brensham Village</i> and <i>The Blue Field</i>, formed part of the 'Brensham Trilogy'. Most of his books had a rural setting and long before conservation came to mainstream media attention he wrote about the effect of technological advances on the countryside and rural life.
