Description

The Lyalldale Waltz. A light-hearted look at rural life about South Canterbury over the past seventy years by Isaac M. Thompson. 'Ike the Tyke' is the only way the author can be described . . . If there's any fun to be had, Ike won't be far away from it. Ike has written in a style which typifies his life . . variety, humour and hard work, and make no claims to literary genius with his first book. In fact the book defies editing as it skips from page to page, with always a thought for the unusual, a genuine desire to see the funny side of things, and always a kind wish for his long remembered friends whose names and photographs appear within these covers. Ike has friends in every section of the community, and friendly chaffing is medicine to him . . . a medicine which he now shares with the reader. The Lydlldale Waltz might not cure you, but taking six pages twice daily helps.' From the flyleaf of this book. The book been personally inscribed by the author and remains in a tidy condition.
