The Sky is as Blue as a Hedge-Sparrow’s Egg

Reading Romany

David Barnaby

£12.00

George Bramwell Evens,(1884-1943) was one of the most loved broadcasters of his day. He was a Methodist minister but in the 1930s he was known by everyone as Romany of the BBC.

He had an intimate knowledge of the natural world and a gift for vivid communication. His natural history programmes led thousands of children to a love of the wonders of the countryside. In this affectionate study, David Barnaby explores the world Romany created. David Barnaby has written over a dozen books. He is an amateur naturalist, a jazz drummer, a saxophone quartet player and a circus enthusiast.
