Rest Assured - Hardcover

Reseña del editor

With a telephone installed and a car called Betsy to aid his fledgling business, Matthew Taylor continues his work for Premier Assurance in the wild landscape of the North York Moors. Meanwhile, his wife Evelyn learns to drive to further her career as a supply teacher. So who looks after baby Paul? There is no doubt that postwar social progress is making itself felt in Delverdale, but it is never easy when a man refuses to use an indoor toilet; another builds a water closet in his back lane, only to have it demolished by a stolen car; and a newcomer needs insurance for his model aeroplanes because he can't tell his left hand from his right. Add Crocky Morris ? the much-loved, accident-prone pot pedlar from Some Assured ? to the mix, as well as the motley clients Matthew attracts at his ?office? outside a local pub on market day, and you have the perfect recipe for life in this very distinctive part of England. And thanks
