Description

The Gypsy Camp by Raymond Wills is a comprehensive and deeply researched study of the lives of Travellers in the UK. Through extensive interviews and accounts from both Traveller communities and their friends, Wills sheds light on the often-overlooked realities of Traveller employment and daily life. From fairgrounds to brickyards, potteries, quarries, and lavender fields, Wills explores the diverse range of places where Travellers worked and lived. He also examines the harsh conditions they faced and the hostility they encountered, revealing a complex and multifaceted history that has not been previously fully documented by writers. This book offers a unique and valuable insight into the lives of Travellers in the UK, spanning centuries and providing a rich tapestry of stories and experiences.
