Ebook: Romany: Childhood Memories of Grandparents Living in the Traditional Way

Michael James recounts his memories from childhood to Annie Southern in this brief but poignant story about his Romany grandparents who lived in a traditional 'gypsy' Reading wagon. His story tells of times on the road in previous generations and they settled life of his grandparents in a fruit orchard outside Evesham in Worcestershire, England. Brief though this account is - being an conversation between Michael and Annie - who met during a course on Romany History and Culture - the richness of the past is conveyed in this interview bringing back a sense of what life once was like - the lifestyle, the food, the traditions.
