Esther-Margaret Hood

Bobby Dazzler Esther-Margaret Hood

In this poignant memoir, Esther-Margaret Hood relives life in Rossendale, Lancashire, in the early 1960s. As the world embraced a more modern outlook, she spent many happy hours on an outdated farm, only gradually understanding its limited world. This is a gentle evocation of the wide-eyed innocence and joy of childhood told through the memories of a primary school child gradually growing wiser to the ways of adulthood, and witnessing a moment in time when lives, livelihoods and a whole way of life were swinging into the 60s... and into history.
