Four hundred years of living on the land, each 'leaf' being an imagined episode about real people, their times and places, gathered over generations into one family.
This book is the result of several years of detailed research into the Phizacklea, Postlethwaite, Bowley, Ward and Wilson families. From Cumberland and the Midlands, even emigrating to America for a while and almost drowning in the process.
Tom Bowley, 1817-1877
