Opis

The humble conker has, over the last fifty years, become a symbol of happier "days gone by" when the world was believed to be a simpler place. Rather unusually, as we will discover, the conker has also come to embody the spirit of the backlash against the rules and directives of those employed to ensure that health and safety regulations are not breached. Rediscover the marvellous game of conkers and reconnect with nature and one's true self. Packed with curious information, "The Great Book Of Conkers" covers everything you might need to become a potted expert on the subject. What part did conkers play in the First World War? Why do we call some yarns "old chestnuts"? Who played conkers with caravans attached to cranes? The answers to these questions and many other queries are to be found in this thought provoking and accessible volume.
