Reviews
“Just wanted to congratulate you both on the compilation of the Datchworth book. We haven’t been able to put it down. The research has been fantastic and we can see why it has taken 3 years to produce. Well done both of you, you have produced a book to be proud of.”
“Congratulations on a very absorbing book, so much more info and well presented, all the long hours have really paid off. After reading troublemakers we are harking after former times, punishment of death for stealing a sheep and three weeks in prison for stealing a hen, brilliant! Yesterdays launch was very enjoyable and good to see plenty of old faces. Many thanks to you both.”
