Not as great as the first, but well worthwhile,

This review is from: Red Rowans and Wild Honey (Paperback)
While it is not as great as her first autoiography, The Yellow on the Broom, I still highly recommend it. It's the story of a way of life which is now gone, and it makes me want to live in that time period and (sometimes) live their lifestyle.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Forgotten Masterpiece,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Red Rowans and Wild Honey (Paperback)
A memoir by an exceptional woman, Betsy Whyte, this book brings to life the way of life of the Scottish "traveller" before and during World War 2. When the book begins, the writer is fifteen and when it ends she is married with children. It is one of the best books I have read for her vivid descriptions of the Scottish countryside and the "traveller" lifestyle, as well as poignant insights about people, religion, and nature. This little book should be on everyone's must read list!
