Smoke In The Lanes: Happiness and Hardship on the Road with the Gypsies in the 1950s
ISBN: 9780349000039 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the 1950s the Romani people lived on the brink of great change.

Dominic Reeve describes his life among the Gypsies: the feuds and fairs, the joyful muddy squalor of an outdoor existence. He evokes an unforgettable cast of fireside characters - bold children, fierce matriarchs and dandyish villains in snap-brimmed hats - and tells of sharp deals...
