Beverley Nichols fans, armchair gardeners, and literature enthusiasts will delight in this second book in his Allways trilogy, with Nichols's humorous ruminations on life in the countryside, as always, are refreshing. The typical Nichols gardening anecdotes and familiar characters are there, as well as the author's beloved dog, Whoops, an inveterate spy with a habit of leaping to conclusions.
