Product Information
Imagine being born into a world where communities are constantly on the move, but freedom is not a birthright. Rosie grew up travelling all over England and Ireland in her family's caravan. She had an idyllic childhood roaming fields and meadows with her younger brothers and sisters - free from the trappings of modern life, but restricted by the expectations of her culture. When Rosie was 14, the family's happiness was shattered when her grandfather - who was loved and respected by the whole community - was killed in a tragic accident. Suddenly everything in Rosie's life unravelled and she was forced to abandon the traditional way of life she loved. Her family fell apart in grief and Rosie tried her best to take care of her younger siblings and hold the family together. Eventually though life at home became unbearable and Rosie met Stevie, a traveller boy who promised her a different kind of life. Sadly though, Stevie was battling his own demons and Rosie's journey to freedom had only just begun...Product Identifiers

GYPSY GIRL....A LIFE ON THE ROAD.
This is the type of Book that once you commence to Read, it just 'Grabs' you and wants to compel you to continue reading. It highlights the Hardships and everything else that Travellers/Tinkers had to put up with in Ireland of the past and Thinking of Settled People still persists in a lot of areas of Ireland of today...More is the pity. I have No Problem endorsing this Book as being of Value but more-so of Intriguing Reading for anybody with an interest in Our Past.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
