Romany Legends Daniel and Dolly Buckley The Gypsy Way
Author: Mary King
Publisher: Troubador Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 1788032616
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 80
Book Description
Romany Legends Daniel and Dolly Buckley The Gypsy Way traces Mary King’s unique family history back to the 1920s. The book follows the Buckleys, a well-known Romany gypsy family that lived according to gypsy traditions. The book contains tales, reflections, memories and anecdotes of days gone by; from when Daniel and Dolly were just young children, to them raising their own young family whilst living in a wagon. The couple faced struggles on a daily basis, but lived a happy, content life. The end of their lives saw their funerals becoming events of an unprecedented scale, and rightly so, for in their time this couple were living legends. “Many of the gypsies of today will be amazed by my upbringing, as it won’t be the familiar gypsy way that they live and breathe now; but it was the only way of life I knew as a child.” Inspired by Maggie Smith-Bendell’s Rabbit Stew and a Penny or Two, the book provides a unique insight into Romany gypsy life, which Mary hopes will inspire readers to preserve traditions that are lost in modern life. Romany Legends Daniel and Dolly Buckley The Gypsy Way is illustrated with photographs and will appeal to readers who want to learn more about gypsy traditions.

The Romany Rye
Author: George Borrow
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 390
Book Description
"The Romany Rye" by George Borrow is a novel written in 1857 as a sequel to Lavengro. The story itself follows the journey of a learned young man living with Romanies. It is a philosophical adventure story of sorts. It also contains what could be called ethnographic material on the customs and views of the Romani women. Excerpt: "I awoke at the first break of day, and, leaving the postillion fast asleep, stepped out of the tent. The dingle was dank and dripping. I lighted a fire of coals and got my forge in readiness. I then ascended to the field, where the chaise was standing as we had left it on the previous evening. After looking at the cloud-stone near it, now cold, and split into three pieces, I set about prying narrowly into the condition of the wheel and axle-tree. The latter had sustained no damage of any consequence, and the wheel, as far as I was able to judge, was sound, being only slightly injured in the box."
