Racing the Wind by Patricia Nolan

Beautifully-written memoir of Patricia Nolans childhood in early 1950s Cumbria, which captures the end of an era. With no running water or electricity at home, this is a tale of contented poverty in a close rural community. Her tale covers three years which begin with a tragedy and end in triumph.
Patricia Nolan, published poet and novelist, was born in Cumbria and attended her local village school of Boot before being awarded a scholarship to Keswick School. Her mother ran the little Boot post office. Patricia's career was in teaching and she now lives in Belsize Park, London. She served as a Justice of the Peace for a decade at Willesden Magistrates Court.
