Dingle, Ireland: Brandon Book Publishers, 1989. Book. Illus. by Mildred Anne Butler; Derry Shannon; Ian Bradshaw;. Very Good+. Soft cover. First and Later Printings. 8vo. 151, 173, 169, 156 pp. Trade paperback format. All four books have light edge and corner wear with faint creasing on the spines; no interior markings. Covers by Mildred Anne Butler; Ian Bradshaw; and Derry Shannon. The changing seasons shape this beautiful, gentle account of growing up on a farm in Ireland in the 1940s. It is a story not without sadness but dominated by light and colour and by affection for a childhood spent close to nature. She grew up in a world of simplicity, untouched by outside influences, free to be a kid and grow up at her own pace, close to the earth. To be clear, the books here are: To School Through the Fields: An Irish Country Childhood; Quench the Lamp; The Village; and Country Days. Alice Taylor's memories of growing up and living in Ireland..
