Recommended read - By: Organic Gardener, 28 Feb 2007 
This is the fourth novel I read from Alan Titchmarsh. Even though 'Rosie' & 'Mr MacGregor' are still my favourites, this book is also a very good read. The story seemed to start off a bit slow, but then it developed very well & became a lot more interesting. It deals with the different sides of country life & explained a lot to me I didn't know before. Recommended read!
A good book but lacking in depth. - By: crugybar@aol.com, 15 Jan 2002 I enjoyed this book as it was on a subject of interest to me. However, I did find it lacked depth. But Mr. Titchmarsh certainly should be congratulated on taking on a difficult & controversial subject & making it work. If you are for foxhunting read it.
This is simply fantastic!!! - By: , 24 Dec 2001 
Hats off to you, Alan!!! You've done it again!, I thought it couldn't get much better after reading "The last lighthouse keeper", but obviously it could.
This is simply one of the best books I have ever read, - & I've read quite a few by now. Two thumbs up, way up - can't wait to read your next book, just to see if you can outdo yourself yet again!
Still thinking it over - By: , 18 Jul 2001 Another good story from Mr T but, I'm still thinking it over. It lacks the depth of 'The Last Lighthouse Keeper' which, for me, is Alan's best book, I think I was a little disappointed with the main character Kit. He promised so much but ultimately lacked the killer punch & turned a bit wishy washy...but don't let that put you off it is still very readable & a page-turner, if I had been able to register four & a half stars I would have. All Alan's books are a great read. Keep them coming Mr T.
Something for everyone and a fantastic read. - By: Matt Meaney, 02 Feb 2001 If you liked "Mr MacGregor" & "The Last Lighthouse Keeper" then "you ain't seen nothing yet!" This is by far the best of his three novels (and I thought that the "Last Lighthouse Keeper" was fantastic!) It lacks nothing. It has that same warm glow that "The Last Lighthouse Keeper" had & it has the brilliant story lines of all good novels. If this isn't a brilliant work of genius then I don't know what is. The story has love, lust, mystery & romance. It is so well written that you can almost imagine being there & if you like a good novelin any respect then this is for you - it has somehing for everyone. I would say without a doubt that this is the best book I have ever read & I have read a lot of books. This one was so good I had it finishedin two days!
