Summer's Diary, A

More glimpses of the enchanting tapestry of people and places in David Wilbourne’s rural Yorkshire. With humour and tenderness, A Summer’s Diary takes up where A Vicar’s Diary left off at Easter 1966. England is enjoying the release of The Sound of Music and is gearing up to host the World Cup--but the Vale of York has affairs of its own to tend, and enough colourful characters to make a country vicar’s life more than interesting. From parishioner Bill Everingham’s preoccupation with the word ecclesiastical, to a visit with some of the local women to a pig factory, to acquainting a holier-than-thou aspiring vicar with the earthier realities of daily parish life, A Summer’s Diary is a rollicking celebration of rural living. Filled with laughter, tears and love, here is rainbow reflection of life from one of today’s best-loved writers.
