Beverley Nichols fans, armchair gardeners, and literature enthusiasts will delight in this, the second book in his Allways trilogy, with facsimile reproductions of Rex Whistler’s original graceful illustrations. Nichols’s humorous ruminations on life in the countryside, as always, are refreshing. The typical Nichols gardening anecdotes and familiar characters are there, as well as the author’s beloved dog, Whoops, an inveterate spy with a habit of leaping to conclusions.
