About this listen

 One of the best-loved men in Britain, Alan Titchmarsh brilliantly recalls his childhood in 1950s Yorkshire. Alan Titchmarsh grew up and developed his passion for nature in the wild and beautiful landscape of Yorkshire. A real treat for his millions of fans, the ever-popular presenter vividly depicts a childhood of simple pleasures like climbing trees and fishing in streams in a time of post-war austerity.

It was not a deprived childhood, yet neither was the garden eternally rosy and Alan's colourful portrait of a bygone era brings poignant moments and others that leave you aching with laughter. Alan's sharp eye for detail brings to life various family members and their memorable quirks, as well as local characters, childhood haunts and significant events that have shaped his life.

Born about a year before Alan Titchmarsh I can recall many of Alan's childhood memories. The way Alan uses his unique voice to paint amazing pictures in my head and I'm there amongst them all so many years before. Truly amazing on AUDIBLE.

Couldn't finish it - just too depressing. Surprising in such an apparently cheerful chap.
