Born on a Somerset peafield in 1941, the second of eight children in a Romani family, Maggie SmithBendell has lived through the years of greatest change in the traveling community's long history. As a child, Maggie rode and slept in a horsedrawn wagon, picked hops and flowers, and sat beside her father's campfire on ancient verges, poor but free to roam. As the twentieth century progressed, common land was fenced off and the traditional ways disappeared. Eventually Maggie married a housedweller and tried to settle for bricks and mortar, but she never lost the restless spirit, the deep love of the land and the gift for storytelling that were her Romani inheritance. Maggie's story is one of hardship and prejudice, but also, unforgettably, it recalls the glories of the traveling life, in the absolute safety of a loyal and loving family.
