About this product

Product Information

This book on the extraordinarily fast-growing numbers of New Age Travellers allows them to explain in their own words why they reject more conventional lifestyles, how they survive and why they are so committed to life on the road . William Shaw and Richard Lowe analyse the compulsion to opt out of conventional society, detail the reality of constantly moving on and balance the picture with interviews with travellers' parents, social workers, police officers, traditional gypsies and others whose lives have been affected by this disturbing new social phenomenon. Interviews with some of the liveliest individuals amongst the Travellers also include their most popular band, The Levellers.

  • An engaging, compelling and interesting collection of interviews and opinions from 'New Age' Traveller stories from the 1990s

    the book was the quality expected for a second hand copy, and it has been great to re-read this since losing my own copy about 20 years ago! Fascinating content and very compelling, the interviews and POV of 'new age' travellers in the early 90s is engaging.
