Over the Hills and Far Away

From early childhood, Candida Lycett Green has retained a love of green lanes and tracks, of moving at a horse's pace and of observing the beauty of England through the back door. Framed by a recent 150-mile journey through Yorkshire and Northumberland with a friend, she reflects on her childhood in the bohemian Betjeman household, a honeymoon journey overland to India, early days at "Private Eye," and the ups and downs of thirty-nine years of marriage and motherhood. Her story is made all the more poignant by her recent fight with breast cancer.Green, Candida Lycett is the author of 'Over the Hills and Far Away', published 2003 under ISBN 9780750520171 and ISBN 0750520175.
