Welcome to the very unusual farming world of the Baileys and their contract with the mighty Kelloggs company which led to the family fortune. The story dates from the 1940's onward, and the young boys of the family get up to all sorts of scrapes and meet plenty of great characters from an Iranian Secret Policeman to local bobbies. The local bobbies are a particular source of amusement when they clash with runaway pigs and sheep and even get deluged with a load of Kelloggs' grains. The strangeness continues with exotic animals, ghosts in England and Wales, and even a stream that runs up hill and is very attractive to poachers. They are a family that clearly enjoyed life, and their stories will make you smile a lot.
