    About this ebook

    This short book, dedicated to a Clan of the South Saxons is the third of ten short books that belong to The Rabbit of Usk. Our hero is still Timotei. He and his grandfather find themselves in the green and pleasant land of the English. It's a land of mystery and seasons, sliced bread and crumpets. There are English People, the long arm of the merchant class, fewer and fewer steam trains, no leopards, no hyena but there are platform tickets and some truly peculiar traditions.
