Four Years in the life of a Boy

Here are ther reminiscences of a young lad in a Methodist parsonage in Eketahuna just after the end of World War I, It is a fascinating chronicle told with sensitivity and a gentle appreciation of his own family life.

Parker is a gifted storyteller and makes it possible for us to relive times past. His choice of words is immaculate; his lively imagination at all times launches into the lyrical. His pleasure at remembering his moment of fantasy, his nice sesnse of boththe humorous and the ridiculous carry the reader on.

This books merits a place in our national archives.
