More glimpses of the enchanting tapestry of people and places in David Wilbourne’s rural Yorkshire. With humour and tenderness, A Summer’s Diary takes up where A Vicar’s Diary left off at Easter 1966. England is enjoying the release of The Sound of Music and is gearing up to host the World Cup--but the Vale of York has affairs of its own to tend, and enough colourful characters to make a country vicar’s life more than interesting. From parishioner Bill Everingham’s preoccupation with the word ecclesiastical, to a visit with some of the local women to a pig factory, to acquainting a holier-than-thou aspiring vicar with the earthier realities of daily parish life, A Summer’s Diary is a rollicking celebration of rural living. Filled with laughter, tears and love, here is rainbow reflection of life from one of today’s best-loved writers.

Inspired by tales of times past in rural Yorkshire, David Wilbourne once again brings alive the rich tapestry of people and places in the Vale of York in the 1960s, seen through the eyes of a country vicar. It is a thoroughly good read - funny, affectionate and touching, with more than a hint of nostalgia. With an extraordinary ability to turn you from laughter to tears, and back again, Wilbourne celebrates the richness of human life with all its ups and downs.
