Description

The Philosophy of the King of the Norfolk Poachers is a memoir by Fred Rolfe, detailing his life of poaching and its consequences. Born into a world where survival depended on living "agin the law," Rolfe recounts his experiences from childhood to old age. Rolfe's story is one of resilience and determination in the face of hardship. He began poaching as a boy and continued this illicit career, despite trying other jobs. In later life, he wrote about the lives of those who struggled to survive in rural areas, drawing on his own experiences. This new edition of I Walked by Night offers a fresh perspective on a fascinating period in British history.
